Bug Description

When gwibber starts, it changes the launcher for gwibber into a heading (what ever that is called in dbusmenu speak), then later adds messages. These messages should end up below the gwibber heading, however they end up at the bottom of the menu. Restarting indicator-applet fixes the ordering.

If I start up gwibber after evolution the gwibber header might end up between evolution header and the list of mailboxes. Restarting indicator-applet fixes the ordering.

Before saying it's fix release I would like to ask you an additional question:
I just opened pidgin and empathy, then I closed pidgin.
In the indicator applet I see a separator below Evolution, as if pidgin was still running.

Is it a different bug?
Thanks

yes I do.. besides, in my point of view when pidgin is still running I should not see a line below evolution, but only when it is really necessary.. for example: when a contact gets online.. do you get the idea?

Yes, there isn't a bug filled, but it's fixed in trunk and will go out
in the next release :)

That's a different bug. It's bug 440484. Please don't change the bug statuses without asking someone who's more familiar with the projects in question. It can significantly mess up our reporting. Thanks for your interest, the fix for that bug is scheduled to be released today.
