As mentioned in http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry- spec/latest/ar01s03.html , escape sequence \s should be treated as a space in string fields. Unfortunately. xfce4-appfinder ignores this rule. I use Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS and xfce4-appfinder 4.10.1-1 The desktop file that triggered the above error is: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=The Last Fedaration Comment=The Last Fedaration (GOG.com) Icon=/home/krsch/hdd/games/The\sLast\sFedaration/support/gog-the-last-fedaration.png Exec="/home/krsch/hdd/games/The\sLast\sFedaration/game/LastFederationLinux.x86_64" Categories=Game; Terminal=false Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-appfinder/+bug/1393212/comments/2 ** Changed in: xfce4-appfinder Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: xfce4-appfinder Importance: Unknown => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1393212 Title: xfce4-appfinder doesn't handle escaping in desktop file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-appfinder/+bug/1393212/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
