Bug ID: 469139
Summary: Kickoff doesn't start Snap packages at the first time
[Kubuntu 23.04]
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.27.4
Platform: Kubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: enric...@hotmail.com
CC: mikel5...@gmail.com, noaha...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
***
Hello,
very often kickoff can't start snap packages when I launch it from the menu.
The first time I launch the app it fails, then it works fine
I report this bug against kickoff because I've tested launching the same Snaps
from 1) the icon pinned to the panel 2) konsole (eg.
/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/telegram-desktop_telegram-desktop.desktop
that should be the same file kickoff execute) and it works.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot the system
2. Open kickoff (Meta Key)
3. Search for a snap with the keyboard (tested with Audacity, Thunderbird,
Telegram Desktop)
4. Press Enter to start the app
OBSERVED RESULT
The app fails to start. It TRIES to start but then it closes.
I say "it tries to start" because if I launch Thunderbird I can see the rolling
circle on the panel-pinned icon, but then it closes.
After failing the first launch, I can launch it again and again with no
problems.
EXPECTED RESULT
Should start also the first time.
Let me know if I can provide some additional log. I tried to start the .desktop
from konsole to get some logs (as it seems the file executed by KickOff) but it
always starts with no problems. Kikoff fails the first time.
