I committed this patch. Thanks Oliver. Please keep in mind when submitting patches that fix bugs to include the bug report information in the commit message. At a minimum, "Fixes: lp:######" is required. It's also not a bad idea to include the link to the bug report even though our commit hook should take care of this automatically.
