afm-system-daemon single point of failure

Won't Fix

Description

This bug is not about afm-system-daemon but about trying to see what caused the problem, but you can't do that when afm-system-daemon is the one crashing at boot. 

While installing homescreen wgt I got the following: 

Then I decided to reboot the machine (not knowing what to do) which resulted in afm-system-daemon segfaulting. At this moment there's no "easy" way to see what caused as you can no longer login into the system. 

Without booting with /bin/bash, mount manually partitions and figure out what caused it (if that is an option).

Off-line, it is possible to remove restart in the systemd service: Restart=no

Then getting a core file, a trace or other debugging output is possible.

The error reported by security-manager is strange and rare (I've not seen it before).

But it should not lead to a SEGV in afm-system-daemon. Even more after reboot. Knowing the reason is important.

: This seems to happen on uninstall/install cycles.

I've seen a similar issue when trying the test wgts.
