I've tested on modern installs of Lubuntu and Debian and using Travis CI. In all cases, the example fails. It does start gedit, then quits.

Does it still work at all?

When saving the example to a script like 'test.py', then doing

sudo apt-get install ldtp python-ldtp
python test.py

the error is
