Bug Description

Browsing Software Centre, I opted to flag a review or two as useful. The first one went fine, but upon hitting the "Yes" (of "Is this review useful to you, Yes/No?" on the second review, this crash occurred. Not sure if it was from the first or second submit.

Seems bug numbers #1049163 and #1050221 are similar but not identical.

Terminal output upon reproducing it is attached, although I'm not sure how useful it is.
