Public bug reported:

Device/Image: krillin / rtm #44; writable image, test version of urfkill
w/hybris Wi-Fi mode enabled.

While testing the new version of urfkill on krillin, I tried to
reproduce bug #1339794 ( toggling Flight-Mode too fast leads to bad
things ).  Every so often the menu would flash, which meant the
indicator crashed, and it would be re-started as expected.

After doing this for awhile longer, the indicator crashed, and wasn't
automatically restarted.   I'll attach a screen shot which shows that
the menu just reads "Empty!", and the output of 'ps -ale' ( run as root
) shows no indicator-network process running:

root@ubuntu-phablet:/home/phablet# ps -ale | grep indica

There is an uploaded indicator-network crash file in /var/crash, however
it looks like it's from yesterday.

I reviewed the syslog, but it looks like it's been size limited so there
aren't any upstart messages I can see.

Are you relying on upstart to re-start the indicator when it dies?  If
you are, you could be hitting upstart's respawn limit.

Note, I had the screen pinned on via 'powerd-cli screen on', but I don't
think this would have any effect on the indicator's failure to respawn.
