https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1822509 --- Comment #3 from Bob Hepple <bob.hepple@xxxxxxxxx> --- Hi Lyes, I agree, there is no point having a .desktop file as it relies completely on command line options to operate eg lavalauncher -b /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/org.gnome.Terminal.svg gnome-terminal -b ... We could _force_ it to use a .desktop file like xfce4-appfinder's with something like this: [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Exec=lavalauncher-wrapper StartupNotify=true Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Utility; Name=Application Finder and script up lavalauncher-wrapper to look for configurations in the first of: ~/.config/lavalauncher/config /etc/lavalauncher/config with the latter provided by the package then run it with lavalauncher $(cat $CONFIG_FILE) ... at least it would avoid going to the committee. But honestly, I have no idea what to put in the /etc config file to be universally useful and I think it's properly against the point of lavalauncher. And just because I _can_ do that does not mean that I _should_ do it!!! There are precedents for this - eg rofi and wofi etc are GUI applications (also application launchers) but do not have .desktop files. zenity too. On balance, I agree with you and I definitely do not want to put a desktop file in there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
