Crashes on startup

Remarkable crashes on startup.

I installed via the AUR. Whenever I try to launch via the Gnome app launcher, I get these errors.

$ journalctl -f

This is what I get when I try to check the version.

$ remarkable --version

Hi, same here, Python 3.9 seems to be common in this bug ~$remarkable /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pdfkit/source.py:11: SyntaxWarning: "is" with a literal.

$cat /etc/debian_version bullseye/sid

Any workaround ?

Thank you

If installing via the AUR, then try the -git version of this package. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/remarkable-git

Worked for me. I guess the non-git version is just outdated.
