[Bug 856975] Re: fontconfig-voodoo crashed with DBusException in __new__(): org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory

 

This is a bit inexplicable, as the system d-bus should be running pretty
much at all times. I see that language-selector does not explicitly
depend on dbus, thus it is not guaranteed that dbus is configured when
the postinst runs. I fixed that in bzr, but it's unlikely to have any
practical effect.

If you get this crash report right after login, it's very likely that it
happend during the previous session, or for another user, and session
start just shows all the crashes which were not presented yet.

This seems to be a corner case, lowering priority.
