Binary package hint: unity

I plugin an external monitor and have a window maximised in the
secondary display that has a larger resolution than my primary display.
I open the gnome-display-properties tool and the secondary display is
currently configured to be oriented to the left.  I move the secondary
screen to be oriented to the right and click [ Apply ].  Now I see part
of the window that was maximised in the secondary display over in my
primary display, and there is a large black area of my secondary display
that is black.  I will attach a screenshot for illustration purposes.
Running `unity --replace` will fix the issue.
