Bug ID: 449045
Summary: Task Manager fails to recognize Google Chrome launcher
as identical if it has flags enabled
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.23.4
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: tcb...@protonmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
Created attachment 145832
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=145832&action=edit
Two icons for Chrome can be seen
SUMMARY
If Google Chrome has flags enabled, the Icons-Only Task Manager will sometimes
not properly group the application, as the flags cause Plasma to believe it is
a separate program
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Unfortunately the exact trigger for the bug is unknown, though I have noticed
it arising from running Google Chrome with various flags enabled using an
auxiliary chrome-flags.conf placed at ~/.config .
OBSERVED RESULT
Two copies of Google Chrome are created in the taskbar
EXPECTED RESULT
The Google Chrome icon combines properly
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.8.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Relevant line in the file plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop--appletsrc :
launchers=applications:google-chrome.desktop,applications:google-chrome
--enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder
--use-gl=desktop.desktop,applications:steam.desktop,applications:signal-desktop.desktop,preferred://filemanager,applications:org.kde.konsole.desktop
(Normally the second icon appears unpinned and will not be in this file; in
order to investigate this bug I manually pinned the duplicate which led me to
discover this anomaly)
Contents of ~/.config/chrome-flags.conf :
--ignore-gpu-blocklist
--enable-gpu-rasterization
--enable-zero-copy
--enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder
--use-gl=desktop
