Bug Description

For example run from the terminal something like:

  while true; do xclock& sleep 0.5 && kill $(pidof xclock) && sleep 1.1; done

After some iterations, there will be some duplicated xclock icons, related to the very same (bamf) application.

unity (7.1.2+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * bump upstream version to 7.1.2

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * Remove the ibus workaround, as im-config has been updated to use
    'auto' as its default choice. This means ibus-daemon will start up
    correctly now.

  [ Andrea Azzarone ]
  * Fix rendering of italic text in StaticCairoText. (LP: #1190275)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * Volume: remove FileManager instance, handle opened status in
    VolumeLauncherIcon. (LP: #1236468)
  * VolumeLauncherIcon: copy files to device on DnD Use filemanager to
    perform the copy action. If needed, delay the procedure until we
    don't have the volume mounted (using a magic utility function to
    share the code). (LP: #838731)
  * LauncherIcon: Add monitor parameter to GetTipPosition. (LP:
    #1236631)
  * AP, TestSpread: assertWindowIsNotScaled may fail when getting the
    Xid. (LP: #1236872)
  * ApplicationLauncherIcon: remove the icon when setting a null
    application. (LP: #1237161)
  * SourceManager: add RemoveAll public method.
  * ApplicationLauncherIcon: don't unset the app if the icon has been
    already removed In this case the app is unset when removed, doing it
    twice causes the app->seen flag to be reset and this breaks the
    assumtions of the LauncherController, making it to recreate a new
    app for the same BamfApplication. (LP: #1237182)
