ios8 cell constraints break when adding disclosure indicator

I have a problem with auto layout on IOS8, the simplest case I can recreate is a simple tableView. I setup a static cell and then simply add a label.

My aim is to have the label largely fill the space, so I have three constraints on the label...

1. Centre it vertically within the superview (I think this is fine)


2. Set the label trailing margin to 30 (relative to superview)


3. Set the label leading margin to 30 (relative to superview)

It's all absolutely fine and works perfectly with no major problems or warning (it does warn about zero height, but I don't think that so much of an issue for this)

Now ... if I add a disclosure indicator it all falls apart. It still looks ok, but I get the following:

2014-10-30 15:51:46.358 ContraintIssue[25572:1586028] Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.
Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want. 
Try this: 
(1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect; 
(2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it. 
(Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, 
refer to the documentation for the UIView property translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints) 
(
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7fd3f3d23390 UITableViewCellContentView:0x7fd3f3d226f0.trailingMargin == UILabel:0x7fd3f3d227e0'Label'.trailing + 30>",
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7fd3f3d235f0 UILabel:0x7fd3f3d227e0'Label'.leading == UITableViewCellContentView:0x7fd3f3d226f0.leadingMargin + 30>",
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7fd3f53b73b0 'fittingSizeHTarget' H:[UITableViewCellContentView:0x7fd3f3d226f0(38)]>"
)

Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint 
<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7fd3f3d23390 UITableViewCellContentView:0x7fd3f3d226f0.trailingMargin == UILabel:0x7fd3f3d227e0'Label'.trailing + 30>

I don't understand why adding an indicator would cause such a problem, it's nothing to do with the scale of the numbers, I've experimented quite a bit.

Any ideas?

The real world example a cell that has a label (the label) and then either another label or a text view that contains a value that can be set by following the disclosure. So the first label is a fixed size, the second ideally needs to be the max that it can be, but truncate the text if needed.

(See the 'ringtone' or 'vibration setting' within adding a contact for an example of what I'm trying to achieve)

Many thanks,

Lee.
