I agree that, given how often indicator-weather is crashing (daily for me it seems), this bug will make it hard for a lot of people to even restart the indicator. So please consider releasing this for precise.
In the meantime, people can work around the problem by simply removing the file in /tmp. The file name varies because it has a uid in it. This should work: $ rm -f /tmp/indicator-weather-$UID.pid ** Summary changed: - indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart + indicator-weather refuses to start, saying "Another instance of this program is already running" when that is not true. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926433 Title: indicator-weather refuses to start, saying "Another instance of this program is already running" when that is not true.
