The bug seems to have been fixed already, still, if you are interested: The exact steps can be found to the forum thread linked in the original report. For brevity, here's a quotation:
--- I dragged a copy of the terminal icon (gnome-terminal) from the Applications menu, onto the panel at the top. I am using it to open an ssh session to another computer automatically with gnome-terminal -e "ssh -Y etc... and that works, but I wanted to rename it. I change it's name and comment in properties, but it just keeps reverting back to the original name and comment. I have other launch icons on the panel, like one for Thunderbird email client, and those can be renamed. --- Additionally, I also tired to create a fresh launcher (from the scratch) but the name would not change either. I assume at that date I was using ubuntu feisty 64bit already (otherwise ubuntu edgy 32). I don't know about other users reporting the bug. However, I tried now to repeat the behaviour described, and I couldn't replicate it anymore. I assume it might have been fixed by some upgrades between the bug report and now. -- Terminal launchers cannot be renamed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109919 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
