msg.say() in DM throws error about slack-machine

You can upgrade to v0.20 to get the fixes

I've had a colleague of mine report a similar error. I don't know exactly what is happening here yet, but I can give you some context.
As part of the upgrade of the underlying slackclient library to > 2.0, I lost the ability to lookup channels and users. The newer versions of slackclient don't keep records of users and channels anymore, because the RTM method to fetch all users and channels upon connecting, was deprecated. Obviously it's sorely needed functionality to be able to lookup all users and channels, so I rebuilt this functionality into Slack Machine using officially supported webapi methods to fetch all users and channels upon SM startup.
Apparently, building up the users and channels dictionaries doesn't result in a complete dict of channels. Hence the missing key.

I have to do some more digging to find out what is going wrong exactly.

Hello
Perhaps it's linked with #308 in which i've seen error when respond_to in private channels
