Yeah, it's a massive pain. Ubuntu is duplicating .desktop files for that reason and hiding the new name (so the app doesn't show up twice), so user's favourites don't break in Unity - which has a whole lot of problems. GNOME had a .desktop file name mapping once (I think meanwhile they've just given up completely), but only cared for GNOME apps in there. So yes, much pain, hard to solve, really annoying :( - Matthias ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
