Bug Description
Binary package hint: software-center
I was installing sensors-applet and openshot was in the queue, but it had not started downloading.
Sensors-applet wanted to display a dialog asking me whether I wanted to start some monitoring daemon at startup. I'm not sure if the dialog was started before this error occurred or afterwards.
Note that software center did not actually crash: the interface was responsive and after installing sensors-applet it went on and installed openshot too.
To reproduce:
1. Start installing or removing a software item.
2. Click on the "In Progress" item in the left navigation pane to view the "In Progress" screen.
3. Activate the "Edit" menu.
The crash noted below will occur.
Note that this crash will also happen if the Edit menu is activated while viewing the History section.
