AttributeError: 'PanelConfig' object has no attribute 'source'

[Alistair Buxton]

To reproduce:

1. Open the main system menu.
2. Drag an icon from the menu onto the panel.
3. Click "create launcher".
4. Open panel switcher.
5. Click "Save Configuration" button.
6. Click "Save Configuration" button.

Result:

Nothing happens. The window does not close, and clicking cancel no longer works either. The following error is printed on the terminal:

:~$ xfpanel-switch
Traceback (most recent call last):

    if self.source is None:
AttributeError: 'PanelConfig' object has no attribute 'source'

It is also possible to repduce from the command line. Follow steps 1-3 above and then open a terminal and run

    xfpanel-switch save foo
