Bug Description
Environment
===========
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
audacity:
Installed: 1.3.7-2ubuntu1
Symptoms
========
I use audacity with the "Status Icon 0.5" plugin. This plugin "provides
a status icon, placed in the system tray area of the window manager."
When I click on the status icon, the audacity window will show or hide
itself. When showing, the window reappears in the last position I moved
it to before it was hidden.
I did an "apt-get update" followed by "apt-get upgrade" this morning.
(See dpkg.log for the list of packages that changed). I rebooted the
system.
Now, when I click the status icon to show the audacity application,
the window always appears near the top-left corner of the screen.
"xwininfo" shows:
Absolute upper-left X: 25
Absolute upper-left Y: 43
Relative upper-left X: 5
Relative upper-left Y: 23
Width: 275
Height: 116
Depth: 24
It doesn't matter if I drag the window to my preferred location and hide
it with the status icon; the window reappears in the same upper-left spot
each time.
I don't think this is a bug with the audacity program.
