Title:
  Memory leak in IndicatorObjectEntryProxyRemote::GetPixbuf

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  In IndicatorObjectEntryProxyRemote::GetPixbuf(), a GMemoryInputStream
  is created and closed, but not properly g_object_unref()-ed.

  I've only checked this with the Unity in natty-updates. I believe the
  oneiric one has done away with the affected code and is not affected
  by this bug.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Start up indicator-multiload
  2. Set the indicator-multiload update interval to something really short, say 500 ms.
  3. Wait 24h or so.
  4. Check the memory usage of Compiz (~300-400M)
