--- Comment #1 from David Edmundson <david at davidedmundson.co.uk> ---
I can reproduce by uninstalling mission-control.

The bug is as follows.

PresenceApplet::onAccountManagerReady()

account manager isn't ready because MC doesnt' exist.
This prints out a tiny debug message.
it then calls
GlobalPresence::setAccountManager()

which then decides to kFatal()

Not sure where it's best to fix this. GlobalPresence will always show offline
if AM isn't availbale, so maybe I should tone down the kFatal to kWarning. It
should stop the crash.

Then in the applet code if there was an error, use the
Applet::setConfigurationRequired() and/or hide the options.
