Title:
  Gnome-do appears / opens twice

Status in Do:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Since updating to Ubuntu 9.04 from 8.10 Gnome-do has started behaving
  in a new way.

  I know many updates went onto my system at and around that time, so
  this may not have anything do to with my upgrade to 9.04.

  I have a hot key set for gnome-do. It is Alt-Enter.

  When I call gnome-do it appears as per normal. I type what I want to find and go to that. Let's say I am opening an app... once that app has opened the gnome-do window will come back again, as though I have hit Alt-Enter a second time.
  It does not do it every time... perhaps 95% of the time. I have not figured out a pattern to when it does not do this behaviour.
  I tried to completely uninstall it (complete removal in Synaptic) and this made no difference. When I reinstalled it kept doing the appear twice routine.

  In essence: First instance of g-do appears. Command typed in. Command
  is completed (e.g. an application opens completely). G-Do reappears. I
  have to hit ESC or click somewhere on the screen (other than on the
  g-do window) to get the second instance to go away.

  I'd love to sort this out... because often if I quickly start typing
  into the app I have pulled up (a text editor for instance) what I type
  will end up being captured by the second instance of Gnome-do that has
  in that moment appeared.

  I have version 0.8.2

  Another issue I discovered in looking for the version number which I
  suspect may be related is that if I go to the About box on Gnome-do I
  can't close that window, and thus lose all use of g-do. I have to kill
  the process and start it again. I opened the about box by bringing up
  g-do (Alt-Enter) and then using the drop down menu it has. I think
  that once the about box appears it is then trying to launch g-do again
  but can't because I have the about box open. Just a guess.
