Comment 2 for bug 1353041

Here is the relevant snippet from ~/.cache/upstart/unity8.conf:

qtmir.applications: ApplicationManager::stopApplication - appId= "unity8-dash"
qtmir.applications: ApplicationManager::remove - appId= "unity8-dash"
qtmir.applications: ApplicationManager::focusApplication - appId= "unity8-dash"
No such running application with appId= "unity8-dash"
qtmir.applications: TaskController::stop - appId= "unity8-dash"
ApplicationController::stopApplication FAILED to stop appId= "unity8-dash"
qtmir.applications: TaskController::stopApplication - FAILED to stop appId= "unity8-dash"
FAILED to ask Upstart to stop application with appId "unity8-dash" Sending SIGTERM to process: 3264
qtmir.applications: Application::~Application
qtmir.applications: Application::removeSurface "Unity Dash" from "Unity 8 Dash"
qtmir.applications: Application::setSurface - appId= "unity8-dash" surface= QQuickItem(0)
qtmir.applications: Application::setFullscreen - appId= "unity8-dash" fullscreen= false
qtmir.surfaces: MirSurfaceItem::~MirSurfaceItem - this= qtmir::MirSurfaceItem (this = 0x3106b20 , name= "" , parent = 0x2a51df0 , geometry = QRectF(0,24 1280x776) , z = 1 )
qtmir.applications: DesktopFileReader::~DesktopFileReader
QtCompositor::setAllWindowsExposed false
qtmir.applications: ApplicationManager::~ApplicationManager
qtmir.surfaces: MirSurfaceManager::~MirSurfaceManager - this= qtmir::MirSurfaceManager(0x1f01e70, name = "qtmir::SurfaceManager")

If I try killing unity8-dash manually, it respawns immediately. I'm wondering if something is a little out of sync in the upstart scripts...
