Bug Description

Impact
------
gnome-tweak-tool 3.24.1 is a new bugfix release for Ubuntu 17.04's 3.24.0.

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-tweak-tool/tree/NEWS/?h=gnome-3-24
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-tweak-tool/log/?h=gnome-3-24

One particular fix is Search (LP: #1697514)

And it should fix this crash where people manually change /usr/bin/python to something other than python2

https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/15414be5b88f6d273934ebf26e9805beae13d755

Test Case
---------
Install the update.
Make sure the app runs correctly in both GNOME Shell and a different desktop like Unity.

Regression Potential
--------------------
This release has minimal fixes backported from the stable series.

It's important to check that Tweak Tool works properly outside of GNOME Shell since this wasn't adequately done for 3.24.0. (~fossfreedom applied a different fix for that issue for the Ubuntu package before 17.04 was released.)

I'd like to see the fix for bug 1678420, in the dropped patch because it was fixed upstream, verified again to ensure that it does not regress. That probably also should have been called out in the "Regression Potential" section of the bug report.

I installed gnome-tweak-tool 3.24.1-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 and verified that the app works.

By the way, dpkg can't handle /usr/bin/python being redirected to python3 and that's obviously not supported anyway. The app also doesn't start when /usr/bin/python is redirected like that. But that's not part of the test case so I'm not too concerned about that.

I also verified that the new version works fine on the Ubuntu Budgie 17.04 live iso and in Ubuntu (Unity) 17.04.
