Pinning doesn't set the executable #8

I accidentally unpinned Falkon from the dock. After re-pinning, it would not launch. If it’s already open, I can use Dock to switch to it. I investigated the file “/home/darko/.config/cyberos/dock_pinned.conf” and found that the Exec field was missing: 

[Falkon] 
DesktopPath= 
Exec= 
IconName=falkon 
Index=5 
visibleName=Falkon

I manually reset it using featherpad: 

[Falkon] 
DesktopPath= 
Exec=falkon 
IconName=falkon 
Index=5 
visibleName=Falkon

And now it works. I’ve since recreated this with other apps, and same pattern occurs.

Thanks @darkoverlordofdata.

Whatever we end up doing, we need to make sure that it works for applications in .app/.AppDir bundles.

I can reproduce this issue. Exec= is not populated correctly.

Possibly caused by https://github.com/helloSystem/Dock/issues/18

I believe this is no longer the case in 0.7.0. Please comment here if you think it is not fixed.
