Public bug reported:
When clicking on the launcher icon for nautilus, new instances keep
being started even when I had already launched an instance before. This
should only happen if I manually select the "new window" action. The
past behaviour was to restore back the last window used if there are
instances already running. Hovering on the launcher icon should also
show running instances but this no longer works. I can get the right
behaviour back if I keep fiddling with the nautilus .desktop file but
the bad behavior returns again if I restart my session without changing
the .desktop file again.
Please look into this as it got old really fast after upgrade.
