Comment 2 for bug 990963

Just tried again, and this time entering my email address for launchpad and password it folded like a house of cards. Ran it from a terminal using "software-center" and I get a segfault.

  return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs)
Segmentation fault

...so I tried software-center-gtk3 and it died as well
