Bug description:
The Zeitgeist plugin creates a GPtrArray to give to libzeitgeist when
registering a Zeitgeist datasource. libzeitgeist internally sinks this
reference, but the plugin assumes the GPtrArray to still be available
and later attempts to unref it.
The attached patch adds a reference to the GPtrArray to keep it
available until the end of the plugin's initialisation code, where it
is unrefed. The patch is designed to integrate with quilt on top of
gedit 3.10.4-0ubuntu10.
