Bug Description

Hi,
I was doing copies of binaries from three PPAs.
Like A->A', B->B',C->C'
I was preparing all in several browser tabs and then hit "copy" in quick succession.

Usually after a copy you will get something that looks like a pop-up saying "N packages have been scheduled to copy to FOO".

What I happened to see this time was:
- the first copy looked normal and got its info message
- the second copy got two of such popups (including the info for B+C)
- the third copy got no message

I'd assume something is written into a "last message" buffer and that is cleared when the new page is rendered. But it seems that buffer is shared by multiple tabs.

Gladly the result of the copy seems right, all target PPAs have exactly what I expected.

I got a mail right after that, so I guess this reference is what you want to check:
OOPS-d12f91975ca451137970ee588e514cf7

The notification-in-wrong-page issue is https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/131165. The OOPS is entirely unrelated, but also harmless: that's https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1314569. I'll arbitrarily pick one of these two and make your bug a duplicate of it.
