  Binary package hint: unity
  
  The problem occurred on the Unity Launcher where you can't know for sure
  if the application is running or if it is just a shortcut.
  
  Since some minutes ago, Unity lost track of the running instance of my
  web browser (Chromium, I am using it right now). Every time I click on
  Chromium's icon I get a new instance instead of the running one. If I
  minimize any Chromium windows, the only way to reach them back is
  through Alt + Tab, since clicking the icon will give me a new window, as
  if it were not running.
  
  I would expect that clicking on the icon of the running application, it
  would restore the existing window instead of creating a new one, like
  what is happening right now with the other program I am using.
  
  I don't know what made Unity lose track of Chromium, and I don't know
  how to reproduce the problem.
