note we can probably work around this problem with debug-helper, I will try to create a fake message loop to unblock the applet, although this is all fake, debug-helper is not the real process to wait for... sigh...
I sent another patch solving the problem on the virt-viewr ML https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2013-January/msg00075.html Since debug-helper is no distributed, we can probably close that bug.
closing as can't fix, since debug-helper is not in the release.
