launching libreoffice via the launcher-icon opens a second icon

[Paul Greindl]

When starting LibreOffice via the launcher icon a second icon is placed in the launcher and the original one goes on blinking.

Reproduce: place the LibreOffice icon in launcher, click it, close the window you get and click the icon again. A new icon pops up and the old one continues “blinking”.

I experience this in Ubuntu 12.10.
LibreOffice: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4

Also see attached image.

This problem sadly is still present in 13.04, even though it does not happen as often at all. Also the HUD does not work very well, still. It feels like the whole implementation of LibreOffice in Ubuntu is not so good...

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
