[Bug 680444] Re: dbus-daemon eats 100% cpu and is not responsive

[mr.goose]

Further to my last, seems kpackagekitsmarticon is not always the
culprit. I'm finding that killing kpackagekitsmarticon does not always
solve the problem. It would appear that a number of other applications,
including Firefox and Thunderbird can lead to dbus going bonkers too.

Ho hum. Back to the proverbial drawing board...

Best wishes, G.
