Impact:
indicator-messages-service segfaults after login if using pkcs11 authentication

Test Case:

Regression Potential:
- shouldn't the fix is just making some variable static that should have no impact

Accepted indicator-messages into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-messages/0.6.0-0ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
