[Bug 862379] Re: Software-Center exits on startup

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

I can reproduce this bug, and triggered crash report bug 863439 while
doing so.

Launching the first and second instances in separate terminals, when the second instance crashed, this appeared in the first terminal:
------------
