Bug Description

Ekiga uses the panel for a notification-icon, and when I killed the panel the icon went away. If I run "ps aux|grep ekiga" from the terminal it seems ekiga is still running.

Ekiga should be able to handle it, even if I know I should not kill the panel manually. Gaim can handle it, so should ekiga.
There is no ekiga-window on the Desktop so there is no sane way to handle the situation for the user I think. Ekiga should notice that the panel went away and then re-add it self to the panel like gaim seems to do.

The output:

kent@h55d210:~$ ps aux|grep ekig

For your information there was a bug filed about it in the gnome bugtracker.

I fixed that bug, I closed that bug.

I only came here because someone said they reported bugs here (which I didn't find, by the way).

I would be nice to sync bug reports between upstream and here...
