lone app tabs duplicated on restart

[zpletan]

Binary package hint: firefox

I have an app tab (Google News), and Firefox is set to "Open windows and tabs from last time" on start.

If I close everything but the app tab and then quit Firefox and re-open it, I will now have both the app tab and a normal tab with the same page as the app tab.

By the way, this behaviour still occurs if I go to Help->Restart with Add-ons Disabled

Still occurs with Firefox 5.

zpletan,

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

We would like to close this bug report as it refers to old versions of Ubuntu and Firefox but before we do we are asking do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported?

If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
