Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I'm unable to replicate the error you're getting. If possible, could you please provide the sequence of steps you followed to get this error, and also let me know if you're still experiencing it, i.e. is it reproducible every time?
I located the section of code that triggered the failure and I'll be submitting a fix to prevent against this problem, but I'd be interested in seeing the real-world steps that led to the failure, as I can't see it happening under normal usage (and was, indeed, unable to recreate this behavior).
