[Bug 643298] Re: newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted
This bug isn't fixed, or there's a regression. I've just installed VirtualBox from Oracle's Debian repository, but if I type 'virtual' in the search field it isn't listed. However, if I browse to More Apps, I see it there.

[Bug 643298] Re: newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted
I see this bug as being marked as Fix Released. It's possible that what I'm seeing is just a different bug. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download any .deb package that ordinarily adds a launcher to the menus. I used the latest Google Chrome package from Google. 2. Install the package with `dpkg -i'. 3. Launcher does not appear in the Unity applications menu. You must restart Unity (I just logged out, and back in, to X) for it to appear. Hope this helps.

[Bug 643298] Re: newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted
More detetive work. I rebuild libgnome-menu with --enable-debug=yes and running it with MENU_VERBOSE=1 causes libgnome-menu to spill out massive amounts of debug data. It shows that the newly installed .desktop file is indeed noticed. The menu tree is rebuild - but it doesn't pick up that new .desktop file in the menu tree. So really, this bug is not in unity-place-files, but in libgnome-menu or something else related to this.

[Bug 643298] Re: newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted
I wrote a small test app that can reproduce the problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/499129/ It reveals that the menu tree is not updated when apps are removed either. The reason that removals seem to work is that we have another layer of logic that catches this (Unity.AppInfoManager). -- newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/643298 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 643298] Re: newly installed apps dont appear in applications unless unity is restarted
I looked into this, and my findings are quite odd... * WORKS: If you remove and app, it's removed from the apps place * WORKS: If you install an app which already in your local apt cache it will turn up in the apps place * NO WORKY: If you install an app that causes apt to download it, you can no longer see it in the apps place until you restart unity-applications-daemon (fx. by logging out) Will look further into this.
