Re: [Audacity-devel] Audacity 3.0.1 RC01 (for testing only)

Not able to find the lastlog but I seem to run into the issue pretty
frequently just by opening/importing files in multiple windows. Maybe that
is the key.

Seems to be fairly easy to reproduce on FreeBSD and Windows but it doesn't
seem to happen in any particular sequence but it always happens during an
open file via ctrl+o type open from what I can tell.
