Description xingge 2014-07-11 08:06:37 UTC 
Description of problem:
You can open two subscription-manager-gui by use CLI command and use "System Tools -> Red Hat Subscription Manager" menu

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

subscription-manager-gui-1.11.3-8.el5

Actual results:
Waiting for a few seconds you will see two subscription-manager-gui shows up.

If I wait the step 1 's gui shows then execute step2, it will just put the subscription-manager-gui to the front.

Comment 3 Carter Kozak 2014-07-14 14:55:26 UTC 
This is a dbus timing info.  If you open the gui twice in quick succession, we can't detect that it's being concurrently opened.

I don't believe this is a problem for most real use cases, and the gui behaves properly in most situations when there are two instances running concurrently.
