Public bug reported:
Hi,
I was wondering why I could not launch chromium from Lubuntu desktop
since upgrading to 20.04.
The chromium package has been replaced by a stub package which just
installs the chromium snap. The desktop launcher just does not show an
entry for chromium.
The reason might be that
/usr/share/applications/chromium-browser.desktop
contains
NoDisplay=true
After removing this line, everything works fine and as normal, desktop
launcher has an entry and it works.
So why does that file contain that line inhibiting it's function?
