[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 628372] Re: Docky freezes when launching application

[Jack Deslippe]

I have figured out the origin of this bug (at least for me).  The bug
appeared for me yesterday because I had just installed unity (for fun)
which brought in a bunch of zeitgeist packages.  When I removed unity
and all the zeitgeist packages, this bug goes away.  In particular,
libzeitgeist-gio libzeitgeist-1.0-0 seem to cause the trouble.

I can reproduce the bug 100% of the time and reproduce the fix every
time by reinstalling unity and then removing it (and the zeitgeist
packages).

Bug description:
Binary package hint: docky

Since today's (kernel) updates Docky freezes when launching an -- previously not running -- application from the dock. The icon jump animation isn't shown, the mouseover stays on screen, and Docky becomes completely unresponsive.

Launching applications in other way or minimizing/maximizing windows doesn't freeze Docky.

I'm using
Ubuntu version: Maverick alpha
Docky version: 2.1.0 vzr docky r1620 ppa
Kernal version: 2.6.35.19
CLR version: 2.0.50727.1433
