            Bug ID: 324993
           Summary: okular --unique foo.pdf suddenly stopped working
                    (foo.pdf not opened), whereas okular foo.pdf works
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.16.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: marius.hofert at math.ethz.ch

I always could use 'okular --unique foo.pdf' to open foo.pdf. Since about 1 to
2 weeks, this does not work anymore. The okular command just seems to hang,
foo.pdf is not opened. However, 'okular foo.pdf' works just fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. in the terminal, type: okular --unique foo.pdf
2. hit Enter (nothing happens / foo.pdf not opened)


Actual Results:  
mhofert at sklar:~/Desktop$ okular --unique foo.pdf
^C
=> aborted manually after several min.

Expected Results:  
open foo.pdf

Note: this always worked until recently (maybe about 1--2 weeks ago). Probably
an Ubuntu update (sudo apt-get update/upgrade) caused the change (?). I work
unter Ubuntu 13.04 on a Lenovo X1 Carbon.
