Public bug reported:

In focal, mypaint 2.0 fails to start with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/mypaint", line 310, in <module>
    main.main(
  File "/usr/lib/mypaint/gui/main.py", line 225, in main
    run()
  File "/usr/lib/mypaint/gui/main.py", line 186, in run
    from gui import application
  File "/usr/lib/mypaint/gui/application.py", line 97, in <module>
    import gui.profiling
  File "/usr/lib/mypaint/gui/profiling.py", line 22, in <module>
