Sorry, somehow I missed this. Thanks for the needinfo. There are instructions on building the GUI here:

https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression/blob/master/gui/README.rst

I am in the middle of porting mozregression to python 3, which will allow us to consider other bundling options (or make existing ones work differently). My work in progress is here:

https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression/pull/513

As part of this work, I could probably also take another look at the python gui. I probably won't have time to look at that again until later this week or early next.

I am in the middle of porting mozregression to python 3, which will allow us to consider other bundling options (or make existing ones work differently) for the GUI, which I suspect may fix this bug. My work in progress is here:
