Running into an odd issue when my system starts up:
I have not been able to track the point of failure down yet. I assume that it is some application that is attempting to start at system startup, but I have not yet been able to isolate the application or daemon. The actual problem report seems to be quite unhelpful in this case:

I thought that perhaps it was an issue with Homebrew's python installation, but after removing and re-adding it, this does not appear to be the case.
Any thoughts?

Was fighting with this issue today, after I upgraded python using brew, the annoying pop up wouldn't let me work on my Mac! The only difference is that it was shouting for python3.4. After couple hours of digging I just decided to:
remove all python3 whatsoever, the one installed by brew and the one installed manually from dmg.
search for all remaining symlinks to python I've had on my development projects folder. After deactivating all the venv's and removing the symlinks the pop up was gone.
Then I found this post of jeremycade which explains the less aggressive approach.
