Two problems, one old, one new since upgrading to Precise Pangolin. 1) If you enter a search string manually, Gwibber always automatically prepends it with a #. This means it is only possible to search for hashtags, which is not always the intent. 2) New in 3.4.0: if I click on a hashtag - eg. #samplehashtag -in my Twitter stream, it no longer opens a search for "#samplehashtag". It opens a search for "#". Originally opened as a question, #195739. The following in response to actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666): $ lsb_release -a; uname -a; apt-cache policy gwibber No LSB modules are available.
