Supply a single application .desktop file #824

Open Forage opened 8 years ago

Forage commented 8 years ago

With MultiBit-HD, two .desktop files are being placed in ~/.local/share/applications/ for the application. Namely MultiBit HD-0.desktop and multibit-hd-0.desktop. The result on Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 is two MultiBit entries when searching for the application in the GNOME Shell overview. Namely the expected MultiBit HD and the redundant multubit-hd. I assume the same result can be observed in e.g. Unity.

There should only be one proper .desktop file supplied for the application, not two. It's a minor issue, but not that clean and a bit annoying nevertheless.

Looks like a naming issue within the installer. I've added this to the 0.2.0 release queue.

I couldn't find where the .desktop files are created in the code. When you get a chance to fix it, it would be good to stick to the specs and:

follow the "reverse DNS" convention

Where the file name should be org.multibit.desktop instead.
