I have encountered this problem several times too. I don't think it is of 'low' importance by two reasons:
1) People are using standby a lot these days, so many people will encounter this error. 2) The datetime indicator is a very basic program with a small, well defined functionality. Not being able to show the date is maybe worse than don't showing anything at all, as people may take wrong decisions based on wrong information. So this is a major issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.
