Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
It is possible to have icons on the panel which share resources. When a
change is made to the launch command of one it will become visible in
the other after a reboot (probably also relogin).
How to reproduce.
- Install Intrepid (Beta), or Hardy.
- click control drag the firefox icon into the panel (a + sign cursor will
appear) to make a copy.
- right click select properties.
- Edit the command such as by adding "--no-remote -P profile2" before %u
- be happy until next reboot
- reboot
- notice that the original firefox icon now is changed to be the same as its
copy
(additional changes to the original or the copy will affect both after
logging in again).
The same can be done by changing the icon. I'm testing whether it is possible
to reproduce this in
other ways than by copying the original firefox icon (I immediately erase the
other two default icons).

I also saw this problem on hardy several times I can't remember if it happened
beforehand, but I always seem to trigger it.
