Double Icon for AsciidocFX in Ubuntu's Dock #403

Closed Autiwa closed 5 years ago

Autiwa commented 5 years ago

I struggled for months with double icons on Ubuntu for AsciidocFX.

For context, you define a favorite app by creating a .desktop icon in ~/.local/share/applications (either automatically or by hand).

I've just realized that the StartupWMClass in the .desktop file is wrong for AsciidocFX.

The wrong line was: StartupWMClass=com.kodebu.boot.AppStarter

You need this line: StartupWMClass=com.kodedu.boot.AppStarter

In short, there's a typo somewhere with kodebu instead of kodedu. I don't know why, I don't know where it is. I downloaded the tar.gz in there, that's why I'm assuming the typo is in the repo rather than in Ubuntu.

To summarize, I don't have an issue anymore, I'm just leaving this here in case it helps someone.

Thanks for reporting, I will look into this.

Hi, I searched kodebu and couldn't find in anywhere in source code. I wonder how this is possible.

Autiwa commented 5 years ago

I tried before to do this exact same thing in the .tar.gz with grep, with no results.

I don't really know the mechanism behind .desktop files so I'm not entirely sure my findings mean there's something going on in asciidocFX in particular and not in Ubuntu in itself.

If you agree, I propose we close this ticket for now, and leave it as is for other people struggling with the same problem.

Ok, thanks @Autiwa
