PyGObject calls the GApplication open vfunc with (files, n_files, hint), but do_open only accepted (files, hint). Because the app is DBusActivatable, file managers deliver files through org.freedesktop.Application.Open, which raised a TypeError, so no window opened and the service exited after its idle timeout.

Apparently this issue has surface because of the "GNOME 51 runtime update", if that helps with reproduction. |

This fixes "open file with" on Ubuntu 26.04 with Gnome 50.1
Without this fix it would not open anything, and silently fail
Built and testen on my machinen and it works.
