See downstream bug https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bzr-gtk/+bug/377476

The first time you start seahorse-daemon via dbus activation, it dies with an error:

"Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0"

But it seems like a false-negative, since seahorse-daemon is actually started and will field future dbus requests.

An easy test for this is:

$ killall seahorse-daemon

$ dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.seahorse /org/gnome/seahorse/opengpg org.gnome.seahorse.Keys.Test
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0

$ dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.seahorse /org/gnome/seahorse/opengpg org.gnome.seahorse.Keys.Test
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "Test" with signature "" on interface "org.gnome.seahorse.Keys" doesn't exist

$ killall seahorse-daemon

$ dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.seahorse /org/gnome/seahorse/opengpg org.gnome.seahorse.Keys.Test
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0
