Title:
  indicator-application-service crashed with signal 5 in
  g_type_create_instance()

Status in Application Indicators:
  Fix Committed
Status in “indicator-application” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “indicator-application” source package in Saucy:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Any users who starts indicator-application with an inaccessible dbus session bus.

  [Test case]
  Try to start indicator-application-service as a different user than the user currently connected (i.e. sudo -u toto /usr/lib/*/indicator-application-service )
  Observe that it does not crash and rather stops gracefully.

  [Regression potential]
  The service could fail to successfully start even when the bus should be available, in which case it should normally get respawned automatically.
