I have locked the byobu icon in my unity menu. When I click it I would expect to have a window for this icon.
But this does not happen. What actually happens is when I click it for the first time, it opens a Terminal window, with it's own, new icon in the menu (so now I have an byobu icon which looks like is not started, and an unwanted terminal icon). If I click the byobu icon a second time, it opens a new terminal window.
I have this problem since I got a new laptop (ubuntu 15.10). On my old laptop it works as expected (ubuntu 14.04 LTS).
How can I fix this?
Edit:
From the comments:
The Exec line in /usr/share/applications/byobu.desktop:
Exec=env TERM=xterm-256color byobu
This is a known bug in BAMF, the window-matching framework that's used by Unity. I think they are still working on a SRU (Stable Release Update)—I seem to have byobu 5.97-0ubuntu1 on 15.10, and the fix is in 5.98-0ubuntu1 or later.
There is a workaround in comment #2 if you don't mind Unity associating all gnome-terminal windows with the Byobu icon.
