Public bug reported:
>From time to time I'm seeing strange error popups under Ubuntu's 12.10
Unity. These always say:
This problem report is damaged and cannot be processed.
TypeError(Error('Incorrect padding',),)
I have no idea what triggered these or where they are coming from. They
are a nuisance. I always have to close the popup. Sometimes it's
paranoid, happening like every 5 seconds then it won't happen for hours,
then again.
