If simply adding these 2 lines to the glipper program will solve this issue (as someone has suggested on the Ubuntu user forums), then why doesn't someone permanently incorporate these 2 lines or something similar into the glipper program, so everyone that has this problem is not having to hunt for this solution and find it JUST BY CHANCE ?

import time # <-- This line is new
time.sleep(8) # <-- This line is new. Increase to 20 or 30 if 8 doesn't help
