There is similar discussion about [pkexec <command>] in .desktop file and Alt-F2: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/957641
Possible solution is simple wrapper script like one of GParted (/usr/bin/gparted-pkexec). In case .desktop file will be removed it still solves problem with launching from dash. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xdiagnose in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1183771 Title: xdiagnose's shortcut launched nothing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1183771/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
