restricted applications are still visible in slingshot #3

Open elementaryBot opened 7 years ago

elementaryBot commented 7 years ago

it is possible to make the executable only readable for admins or exclude a user from the group. linux has groups for this. when an application is set to group admin and world access on R+W+X is 0 it won't show in slingshot for users who aren't in the admin group

In order to do this Slingshot would need to support it, by retrieving the data from already created by the plug config file for each user that is restricted: /.config/app-lock.conf.

Slingshot already supports this. I have tested it by hand. All executables are usual in /usr/bin/

This is important to implement. Some restricted applications are capable of running even when they are restricted (teeworlds, Minetest, etc). This is a thing i would like to have.
