zvaral, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release

I think bug #546578 is a duplicate of this one reported almost a month

being able to process your bug report and thus prevents the issue from
appearing on the developer priority lists.
