vino crashes on desktop sharing with Empathy

The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/+bug/628967 "Tried to share my desktop and got an apport dialog.

If it crashes when trying to share that probably means Vino was not running previoulsy (according to the trace, it crashes when trying to register the TP client which is done when starting Vino). Could you try to start Vino manually first and see if that helps? Use "VINO_SERVER_DEBUG=tube /usr/lib/vino/vino-server" so you'll have some debug output.
The debug variable doesn't give any detail, the server is already running when trying the option those warning are on the command line "(vino-server:3173): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: g_object_new_valist: object class `VinoTubeServer' has no property named `display-status-icon' ** (vino-server:3173): CRITICAL **: vino_server_init_from_screen: assertion `screen != NULL' failed (vino-server:3173): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (vino-server:3173): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed ** ERROR **: Failed to register GObject with DBusConnection "
the issue happens using the 2.31.91 tarball without any change

VinoTube Server inherits from VinoServer which implements this property. > ** (vino-server:3173): CRITICAL **: vino_server_init_from_screen: assertion > `screen != NULL' failed This smells bad as well. I built 2.31.91 and didn't experience any of those :\
seems it's an issue in the ubuntu build rather
