Summary: Multiple instances of the Unity launcher icon for the
same LO-App (e.g. writer) instead of grouping
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.1.2 rc
Component: UI
Product: LibreOffice

Unity Launcher bar with multiple instances of Writer
When I start LibreOffice (no matter which of the sub-apps Writer, Calc etc) by
double-clicking a .od*-File, I get one icon instance in the Unity launcher for
each opened document. But in that case those should be grouped together instead
of showing a second time the same icon (see screenshot). It further doesn't
matter if LibreOffice Writer/... was already pinned/locked to the launcher
before. If it was already pinned/locked to the launcher before then anyway a
new instance of the icon is displayed.
I have two different computers with the same effect so I don't think of a
misconfiguration of my local computer.
I also noticed that same Ubuntu-Version (12.04) on an older 32-bit laptop with
older LibreOffice (having v3.5.7.2 there) works flawlessly. I cannot tell for
sure when the issue started to occur, but I am pretty sure that with LO 4.0 I
did not have the issue. The older laptop is 32-bit - can this make a difference
here? I don't think so.
Some bug reports in Ubuntu tell about bamf package being the culprit, but I
don't really think so because the older laptop has the same bamf version
installed. See

I made further tests while writing this and noticed that when double-clicking
*.docx documents for example the grouping works as it then groups all those
icons together where a *.docx document is opened. Strangely all *.odt document
windows remain as ungrouped separate instance.
I wonder what the difference is in window handling depending on the mimetype or
file extension.
