colord-sane crashed with SIGSEGV in __opendirat()

[Daniel Cerman]

I logged in and had not started any applications. Went away for a few minutes, came back, and saw this error dialog.

Apologies if this bug is a duplicate, but I don't understand the cause well enough to make that call myself.

I should also mention that my raring installation is in a VMware 9 Workstation virtual machine.
