Comment (by egil):

 Not sure why this is classified 'minor'. It is pretty devastating here,
 because pidgin just dies, and I have no IM. This is on a latest & greatest
 Fedora. The output without debug is:

 libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error.
   (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name
 org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files

 With debug it is as follows - I am not sure what in the following is the
 real culprit here, but deleting .purple does not help fwiw:
