ubuntuone-client applet crashed when disconnecting manually

[iGadget]

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

Probably a dub of some other report, but since I couldn't find any report with the same description, I'm filing this one as a new bug.

Ubuntuone-client didn't sync properly with the files I just uploaded from another client machine. That's why I tried disconnecting ubuntuone by clicking 'Disconnect' in the applet. Next thing I knew, the applet reported a 'fatal error' and prompted me to report this bug. When I restart the applet, the same error immediately appears again. Will try a reboot now, hope it helps.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This particular bug has already been reported and is a duplicate of bug 458393, so it is being marked as such. Please look at the other bug report to see if there is any missing information that you can provide, or to see if there is a workaround for the bug. Additionally, any further discussion regarding the bug should occur in the other report. Please continue to report any other bugs you may find.

The current workaround for this issue is to right-click the Ubuntu One applet -> Select "preferences" -> set "connect on start" to "never". Note that you will need to manually connect in order to be able to sync your files after doing this. This can be done by left-clicking the Ubuntu One applet & selecting "connect".
