These are notices, not errors.  git-ssb is a optional feature to render
the "github" application built on SSB.  I highly recommend it, but it is

You did not "register".  You published an About message that names your

a real obstacle, or just ignore it? 

It is a feature of electron, not patchwork, and you can ignore it for
new.  It is probably related to input methods (for typing
Chinese/Arabic/Japanese/etc).
