[Bug 1376322] [NEW] telepathy-mission-control is spamming dbus.log with error messages

[Colin Ian King]

Public bug reported:

I was trying to figure out where excessive file system writes were
coming from (to try to reduce flash writes and hence reduce power
consumption) and I spotted that the dbus log on my phone is being hit by
messages from process 2046:

root at ubuntu-phablet:~# ps -ef | grep 2046
phablet   2046  1741  0 14:43 ?        00:00:00 /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5

root at ubuntu-phablet:~# tail -f /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/dbus.log

..at a rate of ~15K an hour or so.  This is causing unnecessary writes
to the log, filling up file system space and these kind of writes to a
flash file system do cost a small amount of power.  Seems that there is
an error somewhere, else dbus would not be logging it.
