I'm experiencing a crash on iOS 8.1 (device and simulator) when attempting to do a custom presention a UIViewController with a custom UIPresentationController subclass.

The exception raised prints the following to the console:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** -[__NSSetM addObject:]: object cannot be nil'

Here's where I vent the UIPresentationController:

- (UIPresentationController *)presentationControllerForPresentedViewController:(UIViewController *)presented presentingViewController:(UIViewController *)presenting sourceViewController:(UIViewController *)source
{
    return [[STKBlurredBackgroundContentPresentationController alloc] init];
}

UIPresentationController's designated initializer must be used:

- (UIPresentationController *)presentationControllerForPresentedViewController:(UIViewController *)presented presentingViewController:(UIViewController *)presenting sourceViewController:(UIViewController *)source
{
    return [[STKBlurredBackgroundContentPresentationController alloc] initWithPresentedViewController:presented presentingViewController:presenting];
}

Note: I'm answering my own question here in case anyone else makes the same mistake in the future. In retrospect, it's quite clear why using the designated initializer must be utilized.
