Heybuddy was Invisible

[Muel Kiel]

When starting heybuddy I get the following warning: (heybuddy.py:11635): libnotify-WARNING **: Missing symbol 'gdk_screen_make_display_name' but heybuddy starts. And then it just disappears.

I still get notifications but the window is gone. I don't have it in tray mode and it's not starting up in the tray. When in tray mode if you hide heybuddy it no longer shows up as one of the windows in your window list, but with my bug it was still in the window list. I tried deleting my local heybuddy branch and redownloaded it, but the problem persisted.

The only thing that seemed to fix the problem was deleting my .heybuddy file. After that it worked fine. There weren't any other error outputs to the console from heybuddy either. I am going to guess this isn't something that is going to be easy to figure out and it doesn't seem to be a huge problem I just thought you might want to know.

it sounds as though the "remembered" screen position that is stored in the config file was setting the X or Y position to be somewhere off of the screen; or shit was just fucked up.

Is this still a valid bug?

Hasn't affected me lately and I'm the original reporter.
