This winds up being especially bad for RunRev:  you can't use the IDE
after choosing Help->User Guide.

I've filed a bug report for the IDE issue:
<http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10649>

Richard, this is not happening here running LC 5.5.3 under openSUSE
12.1, KDE. Neither launching the User Guide nor using "launch document"
to open some other file in an application interfere with the IDE - it's
not blocking.


Also does not happen in Mint 9, Gnome or openSUSE 12.2, KDE, both
running LC 5.5.2.

Thanks for checking that, Warren. I've taken the liberty of adding your test results to the report.

It inspired me to see if somehow Ubuntu's Unity WM was altering the behavior, so I logged in with Gnome Shell and see the same thing.

Is anyone else seeing this?  I'm using Ubuntu 12.10.
