Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: unity

When I launch an application written in Python with Pygame modules
(python-pygame), an icon labeled "Python (v2.7)" appears in Unity
launcher instead of an icon of launched application. When I put
application to launcher and run application again using icon from the
launcher, a window of Gnome Terminal with Python interpreter is
launched.

I test this with my own Pygame application (https://launchpad.net
/noctua-vagus), Pygame example application (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-
packages/pygame/examples/chimp.py) and game from Ubuntu Software Center
(lightyears).

I believe that Unity itself should take care about this matter. Another
possibility could be modification of Pygame apps. But I don't know how.
