[Alessandro Viprati]

Updated today to gnome-software 3.20.1+git20160419.2.b8d2e40.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1
When I launch gnome-software (now Ubuntu Software) I see 2 identical icons inside the Launcher. Sometimes if I close and launch gnome-software quickly, I can see 3 or 4 icons.

 = How to reproduce =

 * install updates (gnome-software 3.20.1+git20160419.2.b8d2e40.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1)
 * launch Ubuntu Software and lock the icon on the Launcher
 * close and launch again Ubuntu Software many times

Thank you for your bug report. I can't confirm that ... did you restart your session since the upgrade?

[Alessandro Viprati (vipri-alessandro)]

I restarted my PC, since kernel updates were also installed.

It seems to happen when I launch and close some other package manager, such as Synaptic or USC. Then going back to launch Software, the problem happens

I can't reproduce even when using software-center in between tries

I can reproduce it, but not consistently. Opening and closing multiple times could trigger this bug.

[Amr Ibrahim (amribrahim1987)]

I mean opening and closing gnome-software.
