Liferea ignores the --mainwindow-state= parameter

[Rohan Dhruva]

Binary package hint: liferea

I want liferea to startup when gnome starts. I added the following command to the Startup Programs in System --> Preferences --> Sessions

"liferea --mainwindow-state=hidden"

after reading the man page. However, still on startup, the main liferea window pops up, maximized. This is very very disrupting, and not the normal behaviour.

Even when I try the same command from gnome-terminal, the results are the same, i.e. the liferea window pops up maximized.

Thanks!

Forgot to add, this is ubuntu dapper 6.06, completely updated. I would be more than happy to provide any more required info !

this is fixed in edgy with 1.0.16. it should probably backported to dapper.

Thanks a lot for the fast comment. Waiting for dapper fix now :)
