[Bug 1090670] [NEW] Race condition in gwibber-service starup results to multiple instances of the service

 

Public bug reported:

Race condition in gwibber-service startup makes dbus to startup multiple
instances of the service. It is clear that gwibber-service doesn't
handle well multiple simultanous instances doing same thing.

Eg bug would be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-
messages/+bug/606594

I made quick on top of 3.0.0.1 because that happens to me gwibber
version currently. I tried to compile the latet 3.6 version from bzr
repository but there was missing dependencies.  I will attach my current
quickly tested 3.0 fix here now. But I don't have time to do the forward
porting just yet. If anyone beats me to the forward porting you are free
to modify the patch and submit it for inculsion.
