Once XDesktop.terminate is called, there is a race condition where if the termination completes before the truthiness of the context is checked then it will end up checking on a disposed object and the test will fail. The check for truthiness ends up calling __len__ on the UNO wrapper which tries to query some interfaces on the object. This might be the cause of some failures on Jenkins. I can replicate it if I put a short sleep after calling terminate. This patch just makes it check the truthiness immediately instead of waiting until after terminate is called.

Python UNO Bindings
UNO bindings for the Python programming language.
To have much joy debugging Python extensions you need to:
- a) edit
pythonloader.pyin your install settingDEBUG=1at the top - b)
touch pyuno/source/module/pyuno_runtime.cxxandmake debug=trueinpyuno
Then you'll start to see your exceptions on the console instead of them getting lost at the UNO interface.
Python also comes with a gdb script
libpython$(PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR).$(PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR)m.so.1.0-gdb.py
that is copied to instdir and will be auto-loaded by gdb;
it provides commands like py-bt to get a Python-level backtrace,
and py-print to print Python variables.
Another way to debug Python code is to use pdb: edit some initialization
function to insert import pdb; pdb.set_trace() (somewhere so that it is
executed early), then run soffice from a terminal and a command-line Python
debugger will appear where you can set Python-level breakpoints.
