Increased the timeout for checking that the deamon has really started to prevent the error to occur.

---------------
quassel (0.7.2-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * New upstream bug fix release
  * Move quassel-core data dir from /var/cache to /var/lib (LP: #713462)
    - Add quassel-core.preinst to move existing data
    - Update debian/quasselcore-makecert, quassel-core.postinst,
      quassel-core.postrm, and quassel-core.quasselcore.init for the new data
      dir location
  * Increase startup time allowance in debian/quassel-core.quasselcore.init to
    reduce incidence of startup failures (LP: #480022)
    - Thanks to Ralph Janke for the patch
  * Update configdir description in debian/mans/quasselcore.pod to not
    specifically mention SQLite since other database types are also supported
  * Drop temporary versioning libindicate-qt-dev build-depend
