Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
I found this bug yesterday (up-to-date Lucid beta1 64bit) while right-
clicking to try and remove directly some apps from the Gnome panel
Applications menu (wishlist: menu-editor shortcut via contextual menu).
To reproduce:
1. Open the Applications menu
2. Open Graphics sub-menu (for instance, this is how I did and reproduced it
but suspect it can work with any)
3. Chose an app launcher - I chose "Simple scanner" - and right click for
contextual menu
4. Click so that one of the last contextual menus (i.e. adding a tray menu)
opens without highlighting either of the choices
5. wait for a couple of seconds with the whole cascading opened
(Appplications/Graphics/app context menu/add tray) and no final selection made
There it is, gnome-panel freezes. You can no longer use it. Logging out and
back in doesn't even restart it.
Very annoying: the Gnome Applications menu is frozen and always on top.
Very very annoying: Alt+F2 launches gnome-application-control (Launch
application) but it is frozen so most of the system is unusable unless
you can work around thru desktop documents/launchers.
