Geary fails with g_object_ref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)'

Using 4.17.4-1-ARCH and the latest Gnome Desktop, my friend installed Geary 0.12.2 and it works fine. On my machine, using the same kernel without Gnome Desktop, Geary fails:

Can anyone confirm?

Re: Geary fails with g_object_ref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)'

From memory, this happens when you don't have a gnome-password-daemon keyring, so a workaround would be to create one using Seahorse.

I think the crash has been fixed on the `geary-0.12` branch in git, can try compiling that and letting me know if it resolves the problem? I should be putting out 0.12.3 sometime this weekend, so the fix should also make it into that release.
