Bug#673211: gnome-shell segfaulting

[Adnan Hodzic]

Michael,

Yes that actually worked, downgrading "accountsservice" and
"libaccountsservice0" to testing version fixed the problem.

In the process I had to reinstall "gnome-session gnome-shell gdm3
gnome-control-center" but so far it all seems to be working great!


Thank you for your quick assistance,

Adnan
