Bug Description
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty
Sitting at machine A, I ssh -X to machine B and run "sudo synaptic".
The window comes up (on A) and the unity launcher icon for synaptic gets a little mark by it.
I can no longer bring up a local synaptic by clicking on the launcher icon. (<-- I expected this to work.)
I can run a local synaptic via dash.
Selecting quit on the launcher icon quits both. (I expected this to kill the local one.)
I get similar results with nautilus (clicking the launcher icon will not open a local nautilus).
Also, the launcher icon has right menu item "Open a new window" which opens a *local*
(machine A) nautilus.
Firefox is similar, but it's "new window" opens another machine B window. (Inconsistent with nautilus.)
