applet.py crashed with ImportError in <module>()

[Ben Bates]

Binary package hint: system-config-printer

While alot of other similar errors involve printers, this one occurred when I tried to close bluewho, I got a couple of more of these in the 10 minutes after closing the app. I am not sure if this would be considered a new bug or a variation of the printer bug, so I started a new report. It could be related to my indicator segfault I reported yesterday. The only thing thats changed is a major kernel upgrade and a bunch of smaller updates I did this morning with the update manager. Again if this was a duplicate I apologise.
