Maybe you already know about it, but here's the thread in desktop-devel-list where it was decided how to phrase the dialog shown when .desktop files don't have +x set: http://www.mail-archive.com/desktop-devel-l...@gnome.org/msg15440.html There, the message was: > The application launcher %s is not marked as trusted. If this > application launchers source is unknown to you then it may be unsafe to > launch. Sure, it doesn't do what you want, since it provides that bad button "Launch Anyway" (which was there for transition mainly). Anyway, that might be an inspiration, you could just remove the button. Hope this helps! -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
Blocking execution of non-exec things
Hello! As part of implementing the "Execute-Permission Bit Required" policy[1], I need to make changes to a few MIME handlers and to the nautilus .desktop file handler. The main issue is that of the error message to produce, and I'm hoping to get some input for that from the Desktop team.
