It makes ubuntu look quite bad, really. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1813441 Title: Can no longer drag and drop files between desktop and applications Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons: New Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In releases before 19.04, you could drag and drop files from the desktop into applications.
