Title:
  Scoperegistry exits if remote scopes are not available

Status in unity-scopes-api:
  Fix Released
Status in unity-scopes-api package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Scoperegistry (trunk) exits immediately when loading remote scopes
  fails. This is caused by rev. 161 and this line in scoperegistry.cpp:

  load_remote_scopes(registry, middleware, ss_reg_id, ss_reg_endpoint);

  If it throws, it terminates scoperegistry. Error in load_remote_scopes
  shouldn't be fatal for scoperegistry, it should still work with local
  scopes.

  On a related note, just try-catch around load_remote_scopes doesn't
  fully solve the problem; it causes a crash of demo scope-B, which
  suggests that when load_remote_scopes throws, it already does some
  modifications to the registry that have bad consequences later.
