Description Vadim Rutkovsky 2015-03-03 12:24:09 UTC 
STR:
1. Open gnome-shell overview
2. Start incognito mode action

Result: nothing happens - no new windows appear

Opening a new incognito window works fine from existing window

Logs:

gnome-session[576]: --incognito-mode needs a --profile parameter to steal the data from
Comment 2 Claudio Saavedra 2015-03-03 14:47:52 UTC 
Yes, that's broken. --profile needs to be added to the desktop action, but this needs to respect XDG_CONFIG_HOME if it exists.
Comment 3 Claudio Saavedra 2015-03-03 14:51:05 UTC 
Either that or make --incognito-mode take the profile from XDG_CONFIG_HOME by default.
Comment 4 Michael Catanzaro 2015-03-03 15:49:55 UTC 
Thanks for reporting. This is already fixed in 3.15.90. You've got an older version tagged in Continuous.
