Bug#447528: if audacity is running, cannot open a second project from file browser
Package: audacity
Version: 1.3.3-1+b1
Severity: normal
If audacity is already running and one tries to open a second project from
a file browser (e.g. Nautilus) you get an error dialog saying that it's not
safe to run two instances of audacity at the same time and one should use
File->Open from the currently running instance instead.
Please fix this so that instead the currently running instance opens the
file. (Alternatively, make it safe to run two instances at once; even better,
use a separate process for each open project, so that a crash does not take
out all the open projects.)
