[Bug 986983] Re: Opening Empthay from the Indicator also opens the Preference window
Why was this marked invalid? It's an obvious bug which can be reproduced like in comment #8. In short, after running empathy -p once, the preference windows opens every time the empathy windows is raised by executing empathy, even without the -p. Interestingly, even when starting using the option -h, --start-hidden Don't display the contact list or any other dialogs on startup the preferences dialog still pops up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986983 Title: Opening Empthay from the Indicator also opens the Preference window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/986983/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this issue on 12.04.2.

[Bug 986983] Re: Opening Empthay from the Indicator also opens the Preference window
I see your point, hmmm.. the issue is when you open preferences from the unity launcher with a right click, it is actually running empathy -p which runs empathy and raises the preferences dialog. Then you close the contact list window, activating empathy again to raise it seems to use the -p argument that was passed to empathy previously. It looks like empathy is remembering the state, i have reproduced this just by running it from a terminal. 1) without empathy running, run empathy in a terminal 2) close the contact list window 3) in another terminal, run empathy -p, this will raise the contact list and open a preferences window 4) close the contact list and preferences windows again 5) run empathy in a terminal, this will raise the contact list and open the preferences window So this rules out unity, compiz, or the messaging menu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986983 Title: Opening Empthay from the Indicator also opens the Preference window To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/986983/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes, but I think this is still a bug because when I Right-Click on Open Preferences in the icon, I expect this to happen 1 time only.
