Title:
  hud-service trying to output error messages using ncurses colours to
  syslog

Status in hud package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Wherever hud-service is failing, it's trying to print using ncurses
  colour tags (m#NNN[NN) where syslog is text-only.

  example error message:

  May 16 14:11:02 eva hud-service[1967]: #033[31mvoid
  DBusMenuImporter::slotGetLayoutFinished(QDBusPendingCallWatcher*)#033[0m:
  "No such interface 'com.canonical.dbusmenu' on object at path
  /org/ayatana/bamf/window/75498803"

  what this error message should probably be:
  May 16 14:11:02 eva hud-service[1967]: void DBusMenuImporter::slotGetLayoutFinished(QDBusPendingCallWatcher*): "No such interface 'com.canonical.dbusmenu' on object at path /org/ayatana/bamf/window/75498803"
