Title:
Some Qt-based applications open "another" icon under Gnome
Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in quassel package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm unsure if this is a bug in the affected applications, or in the
gnome dock itself. Under Ubuntu 23.10 (mantic) and 24.04 (noble),
running Quassel, Veusz, or OpenSCAD from a pinned icon on the left bar
results in the pinned icon appearing "idle" (not running), and a
second icon appearing below those that are pinned which apparently
represents the running instance.
Pressing the idle application icon (or pressing the Super+N shortcut
for it) runs *another* instance of the application rather than
switching to the running instance. The "extra" icon also cannot be
pinned (and occasionally strange "copies" of it are left lying around
if one tries to drag it to the pinned icon locations).
This may be because these are all Qt-based applications, but I also
run KeepassXC (another Qt application) without such issues (other than
unusual window borders and icons which appear on both applications),
hence why I'm unsure this is an issue in these applications or in the
gnome dock. I'll attach a screenshot demonstrating the issue.
