We override atkobject->get_name so we are guaranteed that we always deliver correct accessible name, in other words it doesn't make sense to call atk_object_set_name to change atkobject->accessible->name." If you are really sure than some cache exists that we must update then could you please run a testcase with orca or check it with Alejandro? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/948788 Title: thunderbird crashed on launch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/948788/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
