Public bug reported:
On utopic-proposed (r62) I installed a click app and tried running it
with qmlscene from the command line passing it its own desktop file.
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ qmlscene
--desktop_file_hint=/opt/click.ubuntu.com/com.ubuntu.developer.jani.monoses.railroad/current/railroad.desktop
/opt/click.ubuntu.com/com.ubuntu.developer.jani.monoses.railroad/current/main.qml
QUbuntu: Could not create application instance
Aborted (core dumped)
Passing another preinstalled desktop app lets it run though
qmlscene --desktop_file_hint=/usr/share/applications/webbrowser-
app.desktop
/opt/click.ubuntu.com/com.ubuntu.developer.jani.monoses.railroad/current/main.qml
Copying either of the desktop files to /home/phablet/webbrowser-
app.desktop and then passing that path works too.
It looks like the name of the file matters not its path.
