Public bug reported:
If I have a .desktop file with NoDisplay=true, and a mime association,
it should create an application that shows up in a mime selection list,
but not in the main application search or menu.
If I use a file named test-foo.desktop, and then invoke:
xdg-desktop-menu install test-foo.desktop
it behaves correctly. No search for foo in dash shows anything, but a right
click on a .exe offers up Foo as a choice.
If I uninstall test-foo.desktop, copy it to a file named:
test-:-foo.desktop
and repeat the process, the Foo application appears in a dash search, which it
should not.
This impacts all CrossOver installations, and since CrossOver likes to
establish mime types to launchers without polluting the menu space, this
bug really makes CrossOver + Unity an ugly experience.
