Public bug reported: Ubuntu: 13.10 Unity: 7.1.2+13.10.20131014.1-0ubuntu1
- Creating a fully compatible .desktop file in Ubuntu 13.10 and placing it in either ~/.local/share/applications or /usr/share/applications doesn't generate an icon in Unity. - However, copying an exisiting launcher and editing it does show result, albeit somewhat erratic - icon and exec does update but title stays the same as the original .desktop. - Here's a screenshot after a new launcher has been added "Mean Streets" (showing up as a desktop launcher in Nautilus), note the lack of the same in Unity: http://oi44.tinypic.com/2uesm12.jpg ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: unity 7.1.2+13.10.20131014.1-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-15.23-generic 3.11.10 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-15-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.2 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' Date: Wed Jan 22 22:26:44 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-12-23 (30 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release i386 (20131016.1) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: unity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 saucy ** Attachment added: "Screenshot of bug" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1271729/+attachment/3954695/+files/unitybug.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
