Bug Description
According to https:/
This happens when unity8-dash can't find unity8 (mir server) and crashing (via QFatal) is our controlled way of exiting (not very clean, but it is how it is)[1].
This will happen for example if you try to start unity8-dash directly (not through upstart) from a ssh shell in the phone, i.e
phablet-shell
stop unity8-dash
unity8-dash
And it may happen after a unity8 crash.
In general we think that it's not a pressing issue users have since there seems to have not been any report of unity8-dash failing to start, but we're creating this bug to track it from time to time and make sure it doesn't get worse.
[1] Qt platform plugins (also know as QPA) don't have a way to say they had a problem initiating themselves, Qt code is prepared for the QPlatformIntegr

I don't think anything can be done in either unity8 or the dash binary... this is how mirclient/qtubuntu behave when there's a connection problem.
