Geany "LIBDBUSMENU-GTK-CRITICAL **: watch_submenu: assertion `GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL(menu)' failed"

I'm doing this Ruby on Rails tutorial, and everytime I input

:~/rails_projects/first_app$ geany .gitignore

I get this

(geany:12043): LIBDBUSMENU-GTK-CRITICAL **: watch_submenu: assertioN                      
`GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL(menu)' failed
@ubuntu:~/rails_projects/first_app$ geany .gitignore

(geany:12369): LIBDBUSMENU-GTK-CRITICAL **: watch_submenu: assertion     
`GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL(menu)' failed

The text editor still opens, but the terminal doesn't let me input anything unless I close the text editor, unlike the tutorial where he has it open, and the terminal still works.How can I get the functioning terminal with the text editor?

Solution

I have the same question.
Any ideas on how to correct it??

The way I found to continue to use the command line and still have the geany opened is:

 $ geany file &
 $ <ctrl+c>

It's useful, but not perfect. A solution would be good
