Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: indicator-applet

WHAT HAPPENED: The first gwibber entry in indicator-applet launches a
new gwibber instance, that will be listed under evolution and empathy
(creating the "double entry"). So, I'll have two gwibber entries in the
indicator-applet: the last one that corresponds to the gwibber instance
and the original first entry, and it gets worse: if I click the first
entry, it will launch *another* gwibber entry, and another, and
another... I just notice this because my RAM consumption jumped to the
sky.

WHAT I EXPECT TO HAPPEN: The dual gwibber entry should be listed as one.
The first time I click it, it should launch a gwibber instance, and
after it, future clicks should bring the *unique* instance and do not
create new instances (just like Empathy does).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BTW, evolution should be able to "hide itself into indicator-applet".
When I close it, it doesn't run in background, so IMHO its indicator-
applet entry is useless. I have to keep evolution opened in other
workspace to get my mail checked OR open evolution with alltray to be
able to minimize it to the notification area, but in this case the mail
notification efforts will be duplicated: alltray icon and indicator-
applet icon.
