[Bug 1061715] Re: Launcher items removed when .desktop file disappears for running sessions
I had originally only checked by changing the file name of the desktop file back to what it was originally, and noticed that it didn't bring it back. But after a reboot, the desktop file is back. So the launcher icon for the file doesn't get removed permanently upon rename/deletion, but only for that particular session. Unity checks if it exists on every login, and if the desktop file becomes available again, it displays it. Not sure what the correct fix should be (track if the file gets re- added? Or permanently remove it?) Leaving that to the design team, even though this issue falls right on the dividing line between a technical and design bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061715 Title: Launcher items removed when .desktop file disappears for running sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/1061715/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1061715] Re: Launcher items removed when .desktop file disappears for running sessions
I can confirm that deleting or renaming a desktop file permanently removes it from the launcher. Marking needs-design so that a decision about what should happen can be taken. ** Tags added: needs-design ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: unity Status: New => Incomplete ** Also affects: ayatana-design Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061715 Title: Launcher items removed when .desktop file disappears for running sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/1061715/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
