[Bug 827414] Re: gedit fails to start on first try, but does on the second

 

Seems like it has something to do with unity or how unity is starting
gedit at least, Mikkel it seems you started looking at it, do you want
to own the bug for the unity team? ;-) If not feel free to unassign or
reassign to somebody else in dx

Bug description:
  The gedit window fails to appear when I start gedit on my first try.
  It does appear on my second try. This is true when starting from the
  launcher, opening a document from a folder, or opening a file using
  the terminal. I can see gedit did started the first time; the process
  is running.

  If I start gedit using --standalone it does work the first time. This
  implies that default behaviour is to start gedit in the background.
  The file is ignored when gedit starts in the background, so a second
  call is needed to load the document.
