my guess is this is crashing trying to load the session indicator which we don't ship on the image.

The issue is that the ubiquity code tries to load .so files that don't exist in saucy anymore, the code needs to be ported to support indicator-ng, Lars said he's going to do that (basically adding an installer profile to the indicators and make ubiquity load those)

summary: - panel crashed with SIGSEGV in indicator_object_get_entries()
+ ubiquity needs to be updated for the new indicators
