Thanks for the tip - I've found which the steps to reproduce: it appears to be "glipper", a gnome clipboard manager. Disabling "clipboard manager" eliminates the problem; re-enabling it revives the problem. This works consistently on two different machines I've tried.
Not sure who's responsible for that - glipper or gnome-panel. If it is glipper, this bug can be closed, and I'll file it over there. -- run application dialog autocomplete regression https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227406 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
