Title:
  Pressing ALT+F2 Dash triggers a bug, maybe via searching the history

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1) Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Beta 1

  2) unity: Installiert: 5.4.0-0ubuntu2

  3) I wanted to start minecraft via 'java -jar minecraft' as icon in my
  Dash, after pressing ALT+F2

  4) I could start minecraft, but a bug, that appeared again, that I reported a few hours ago. I didn't start synaptic in this session, indeed, indeed I just started the PC just 5 minutes ago. Instead, the Unity Dash must have called up in background (in going to the history - whatever) the terminal command again, that lead to bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/861258
  If that happens more often, there might be the risk, that the Dash becomes unsuable, the more often, I find / hunt / report bugs.

  Hot wo reproduce it?
  Try to get the bug #861258 by entering 
     sudo add-apt-repository ppa://dallen.wilson/ultima
  in a terminal and report that bug (so you can describe yourself to it).
  Restart you're PC
  Login to Unity
  Press ALT+F2 - and click on one of you're symbols, that show older commands, but do it after some seconds, 5-10.
  Shortly after that - the bug reporting tool should fire up and will inform you about "ValueError in raw_decode(): No JSON object could be decoded"

  I guess, it should work with any other bug too.
