Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu Saucy, just-updated. synergyc is set to start up in Startup
Applications on login; login is set to automatic (so I don't need a
keyboard on that machine because synergy...) After that update and
reboot (and after previous reboots), and on login, I keep getting a
dialog saying synergyc has crashed (with a Date field indicating it just
happened, not a stale crash report). But it's also working at that point
as I am immediately able to interact with that machine from the
keyboard/mouse on the other one, and ps aux shows it running, with the
commandline given in startup applications.

When I try to report the crash, it gives the dialog that the bug was
already reported, and to check the bug shown in the browser. The
browsertries to open https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1200273, and gets a
404. That bug in the URL is #1200273 (just repeated so it makes a link
in this report). This does indeed appear to be missing from launchpad.

Anyway, attached is the .crash file left behind in /var/crash.

It's a mystery why it crashes and yet keeps running. I can't see where I
might be launching two instances. I had been playing with trying to get
it to launch in lightdm instead of on session startup but that wasn't
working well, so I deleted that line from /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
again. AFAIK it's just in startup applications as /usr/bin/synergyc
<hostname>
