Ok I suspect its an old race problem (if its random then its very likely to be this)
1) trackerd is started on login (XDG autostart) 2) trackerd needs to check databases during initialisation (usually less than a second to do this) 3) trackerd them registers dbus connection with deskbar applet loaded, it will try and activate trackerd but if dbus does not see trackerd connected to it at that point in time it will spawn another trackerd this latter spawn will exit as it sees another trackerd already and deskbar then crashes. SImple fix might be to register tracker dbus earlier on in trackerd or make the applet not call trackerd until a search is performed - I will look at both options... -- libdeskbar-tracker crashes at session start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131247 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
