When calling bzr, i get python error messages.

When I call bzr (on OpenSuSE Leap 42.3), I get a bunch of Python error messages. Even when I just call bzr help. These are the errors I see:

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.TypeError: first argument must be string or compiled pattern

Traceback (most recent call last):
