Package: gnome-panel Version: 2.26.2-1 Severity: normal Since version 2.24 the notification area in gnome panel fails to free space allocated to an application icon when that application exits. As a consequence the notification area tends to grow each time I launch an app that sits in the area. The only solution is to kill and restart gnome-panel. I have attached a screenshot to show the problem.
