I started another app that uses desktopcouch, after that, gwibber now works

isn't this a duplicate of bug 530541 ?

[Rick Spencer (rick-rickspencer3)]

I think not, but could be. This bug appeared today after a major new update to desktopcouch, and only seems triggered by gwibber calling desktopcouch when desktopcouch is not running. I assigned to kenvandine so he could get the debugging data/.

Is this not bug #530541?
