Only init the nm dbus connection once (997 bytes, patch)

Description Dave Malcolm 2006-01-13 03:57:35 UTC 
If evolution is already running, and I start a 2nd instance of evolution, the 1st instance of evolution quits with an assertion failure in the NetworkManager code (the 2nd instance gets the 1st instance to activate a new shell, and the assertion fires there).

The assertion failure is:
** ERROR **: file dbus-gmain.c: line 265 (connection_setup_add_watch): assertion failed: (dbus_watch_get_data (watch) == NULL)
aborting...

Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.

Only init the nm dbus connection once 

Does this need to be made threadsafe?  I believe it only ever gets called from the main GUI thread.
Comment 3 Srinivasa Ragavan 2006-02-05 04:38:12 UTC 
Dave, looks fine to commit.
Comment 4 Shreyas Srinivasan 2006-02-05 04:41:12 UTC 
Committed on behalf of Dave. Since it gets called from the gui thread only there is no need to make it thread safe.
Comment 5 Shreyas Srinivasan 2006-02-05 04:43:26 UTC 
fixed. Thanks for the patch.
