I did push this patch [1], which in theory will catch and handle the
error. However, by eliminating all of the calls to blk.set_color() and
calling blk.refresh() after adding/setting the BOX_COLORS dictionary
entry for blk.name, I have not been able to trigger the error. Still
not sure of what is the root cause, but the change above is
recommended in any case as it is much more efficient.

Please let me know if any/all of the above helps.

regards.
