Bug Description

Binary package hint: meld

In edgy, "meld" application window steals focus on start.
Most of gnome applications behave correctly: when they
start a bit longer and user switch to other window/application,
then newly launched applications open on background.
But this is not the case of this application.

This is an incomplete state. Why do you think it should be changed to "new"?

Well I am not sure but I think that "Incomplete" is replacement for "Needs info".
So when I answered the question, I changed it back to "new" which was the state before the ask.

Thanks for your reply. 'Incomplete' means that we are not ready to mark the bug confirmed as described in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs, what is in fact a replacement for 'needs info'. Please don't change that status, unless you know what you are doing.

Also note, that 'needs info' has a completely different meaning as by the LP answer tracker.
