I'm finding that while testing with sugar-jhbuild it's quite annoying to have the service creation bomb out when an existing instance of the service (presence or clipboard) is active. That is, it would be useful if it could simply catch the error and stop trying to create the service if there is an org.freedesktop.Avahi.CollisionError (local name collision) error on the attempt to create the services.

I don't believe this would have a negative effect on the run-time system. In the field it would seem better to allow the system to restart with a running service, rather than failing to restart Sugar. Not sure when the situation would happen on the real hardware (maybe on an X server restart), but might be an idea to have the protection in there.

Just a suggestion,
Mike
