is it consistently happening on your Fedora 20 machine, can you try with other distros to see whether it's just a Fedoar 20 issue?  I can't reproduce it locally...
Comment 2 Ada Solcan 2014-01-27 14:11:35 UTC
it consistently happening on my Fedora 20 machine, but I can't reproduce this bug on Ubuntu 13.10
Comment 3 Alexandru Georgescu 2014-01-30 13:36:54 UTC
I couldn't reproduce on my Fedora 20. I will investigate further on Ada's machine.
