Bug ID: 384037
Summary: DesktopFileParser::convert: incorrect service file
name?
Product: frameworks-kcoreaddons
Version: 5.37.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: mp...@kde.org
Reporter: manisan...@gmail.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Note: I'm not sure whether this is a bug in kf5-kcoreaddons or kwin
DesktopFileParser::convert has the following code:
// some .desktop files still use the legacy ServiceTypes= key
QString fileName = service.toLower().replace(QLatin1Char('/'),
QLatin1Char('-'))+QStringLiteral(".desktop");
However, kwin (and others, judging from ls /usr/share/kservicetypes5/), don't
have a dash in their service desktop filenames, i.e.:
kwineffect.desktop
kwinscript.desktop
kwinwindowswitcher.desktop
etc
Currently, DesktopFileParser::convert makes kwin look for i.e.
kwin-windowswitche.desktop and so on, which results in errors like
kf5.kcoreaddons.desktopparser: Could not locate service type file
kservicetypes5/kwin-effect.desktop, tried ("/home/sandro/.local/share",
"/usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share", "/usr/local/share",
"/usr/share")
and some functionality not working (in this case, the task switcher).
I suppose either DesktopFileParser::convert generates an incorrect filename, or
kwin names its service files incorrectly (see
https://smani.fedorapeople.org/taskswitcher.jpg).
Using
- kf5-kcoreaddons-5.37.0-1.fc28.x86_64
- kwin-5.10.5-1.fc28.x86_64
on Fedora rawhide.
