Description Sebastien Bacher 2005-10-10 10:52:46 UTC 
This bug has been opened here: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17394

"If you execute

/etc/init.d/dbus restart

The battery status applet will die and ask if it should be reloaded. This
happens, eg, when you upgrade/install an application that uses dbus. The applet
should not do this, it should recover gracefully without prompting the user."

This is a D-BUS limitation and a pain in the neck. I blame Redhat.

I think that Gossip recently had a fix for this, not sure if they're attempting to reaquire the bus if it goes missing or not. Might be worth looking into.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-applets/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
