Bug Description

Whenever I use the messaging menu indicator to launch apps, they won't display their menus on the top panel, but on their own windows.
I identified this issue in Gwibber, Pidgin and Liferea, but was unable to reproduce it with Thunderbird and Empathy .

Thanks for your report. I can reproduce it with liferea but also with rhythmbox launched from the sound indicator. It happens with Unity and Unity-2d

ok, it's due to http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-utopia/dbus.git;a=commitdiff;h=83799f5a28ca70077e6fb4b06736740ec763fd00 in dbus, the Xsession appmenu scripts need to be moved before the dbus one

This bug was fixed in the package dbus - 1.4.12-4ubuntu2

---------------
dbus (1.4.12-4ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * debian/dbus-Xession: revert debian's commit which changed the way the
    environment is updated for dbus-launch commands, the issue it fixes is
    rather marginal but it creates issues commands run using gio, which is
    the case of i.e indicators or unity "run a command" (lp: #807614, #809900)
