unity-panel-service crashed with SIGABRT in raise()

[Cameron Hart]

Binary package hint: unity

I am running a locally compiled version with no changes. Unity revision is 1029, Nux is 297.

At the time I was running Qt Creator maximised. It crashed when I opened the options screen through Tools > Options.

My description was incorrect. I thought I was running a locally built version of unity but because I'd configured it wrong (package instead of local) I was running the system version.
