[Bug 1251915] Re: Dash + zeitgeist does not log use of KDE applications for 'Recently used'
Bug still present in Xenial. Creating symlinks as suggested in comment #2 has the unwanted side effect of creating duplicate entries for KDE applications in the Search and Applications lense. So it would seem the proper fix would instead be for Unity to grab the path of where the konsole.desktop file resides, and if it is found to be in /usr/share/applications/kde4, then the desktop filename presented to zeitgeist should be changed from konsole.desktop to kde4-konsole.desktop -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251915 Title: Dash + zeitgeist does not log use of KDE applications for 'Recently used' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1251915/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1251915] Re: Dash + zeitgeist does not log use of KDE applications for 'Recently used'
Still being hit with this bug on Trusty. Some digging into zeitgeist's source shows that it gets the application info from the *.desktop file using glib's GDesktopAppInfo https://developer.gnome.org/gio/2.33/gio-Desktop-file-based-GAppInfo.html#g-desktop-app-info-new Reading the info from the above URL and using konsole.desktop again as the example, zeitgeist will only find konsole.desktop if it is renamed kde4-konsole.desktop. Another solution is to create a symlink named /usr/share/kde4 that points to /usr/share/applications/kde4 and add /usr/share/kde4 to XDG_DATA_DIR desktop env. variable at login. ** Description changed: - Using Saucy 13.10, when using KDE applications launched from the Dash, - they do not show up as 'Recently used' neither in the Home or - Applications lenses. + Using Saucy 13.10 and Trusty 14.04, when using KDE applications launched + from the Dash, they do not show up as 'Recently used' neither in the + Home or Applications lenses.
