Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pidgin
After an upgrade to Jaunty beta, my system now notifies 4 different ways
of a new IRC message. I have the 2 new ones from the new notification
scheme (i.e, the black bubble and the envelope in the top panel) and I
have the 2 old ones (the Pidgin icon in the top panel and the flashing
Pidgin window in the bottom panel).
Having my system notify me 4 separate ways for the same event is too
much. I believe this is only a problem with upgrades, not new installs,
and think that upgrades needs to be dealt with intelligently in the apps
and the new notification system. I suspect but do not know for sure that
this may happen for other apps as well (e.g, Evolution).
Given our user base, we will likely have more upgraders than new
installers, so I think this is a pretty serious usability issue.
