Comment 3 for bug 1105216

I ran into some weird bug like this... Try logging out and back in and see if it works. I think it has to do with the way the filename is added to LauncherFavorites in gsettings. It's actually at the end of the list but is shown at the top of the launcher bar. The positioning is guessed from the list position. I've found that moving the launcher icon all the way to the bottom and then moving it back fixes it (or maybe logging in/out or typing in a terminal setsuid unity ).
