Hi Allison
 I had a look at lp:~mpgallage/opensinhalease/quickly_trunk and it
tries to call desktopcouch
 which is unusable in Precise. I stubbed out the desktopcouch calls
and the app runs from the source code now. Patch attached.

There is a porting wiki entry https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Quickly/GTK3
that considers
PyGObject to PyGI
GTK+ 2 to GTK+ 3
GConf to GSettings

but old quickly apps need a desktopcouch to GSettings guide.
