It all works now, thanks mostly to some very detailed reading of the specs by Ivan. In short, I made the following changes:
- add the missing WM hint to the .desktop file we install - add the svg logo as 'scalable' - create a new (square) 48x48 default png logo from the new one - deactivate yesterday's patch and it is all good now. Duncan's rgl windows aggregate under the item, as do the standard R x11 devices. I will try to attach a small screenshot, we'll see how mailman likes it. Martin should still be able to get the old (and to me, buggy) behaviour back by removing the one key line from the .desktop file, if his Fedora environment ever updates as I plan. For anyone on Ubuntu 20.10, updated binaries are in my PPA, see https://launchpad.net/~edd/+archive/ubuntu/misc/+packages?field.name_filter=r-base&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=groovy Changelog entries below, these have not been committed to Debian's git yet but I think I will activate this for R 4.0.5 next week (and test it til then).
