Hi,

Rafal is right even though installing the package helped in this case as
well ;)

I did this:

sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop-accomplishments
accomplishments-daemon --stop
accomplishments-daemon --kill
accomplishments-daemon --start

Accomplishment Viewer starts after this and correctly does not show desktop
collection.

Though IMHO it is a bug that the viewer crashes if the daemon has not been
restarted after package changes. I will file a bug about this. Maybe a
little fault tolerance by booting the daemon in such an error case where
the viewer notices that something could be wrong?

Br,
Jason
