Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gedit
After upgrading to 11.04, I noticed that if gedit is present in the "Startup Applications" list, the gedit instance that opens on login is no longer used when a text file is opened from nautilus. I don't have any details about SIMILAR use cases, since mine is kind of an edge case, but here are the reproduction steps: 1. Using non-Unity GNOME... 2. Put gedit into the startup applications list (System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications) 3. Put a nautilus sftp session into the startup applications list (path: nautilus sftp://...) [This may or may not be necessary] 4. Reboot/Re-login 5. Gedit and Nautilus should open up. Using the Nautilus window, open a text file (.php, in my case) 6. Ubuntu should open up a new gedit window, and open the file there, instead of using the already opened session. Expected behaviour: Ubuntu should open the text file in the currently open gedit session.
