The bug itself that there is a sign-in dialog at startup for invalid
tokens and that the dialog has a misleading text needs to be sorted for
12.04.
At this point my suggestion is to simply show the "opt-in" button again if the
token is not working. Does that work for you mpt?
The alternative would be to show the login dialog at startup with a better
text. This requires a string freeze exception unless
we can reuse the opt-in text that is already in the application.
** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
