Upgrade path: mintupdate needs to depend on xapp 1.6 #26

I am attempting to upgrade mint 19.2 to 19.3. I changed tina to tricia in the official-package-repository.list and after that got the prompt to update mintupdate. After doing so mintupdate will not start no matter how I try to start it. I am getting this error when opening via terminal with or without sudo.

'gi.repository.XApp' object has no attribute 'StatusIcon' <class 'AttributeError'> ^C

I am attempting to do the upgrade via the GUI so i can report bugs and all for that so Mint is easier to use. I know how to do the terminal method but normal people will run into this issue and just quit most of the time. I want mint to be as easy and strait forward on the GUI as the terminal.

Ah yes, it needs Xapps 1.6. We'll need to iron this out for the upgrade path.

Ok can you let me know when you guys get that situated so I can do some testing. Do you have any hardware that you can suggest me to test with? I have a MacBook pro from 2010 a HP Elitebook from 2013 and a HP Stream from 2018. I also have a desktop running AMD 8350 that if you want I can run the testing on as well.
