Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff) widget
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

SUMMARY
If we modify a .dekstop in .local/applications/app.desktop for example to
change the Exec and the version, even if we run `kbuildsycoca5` it will not
update the application in application launcher (and the application will still
run the original Exec)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. modify a .local/applications/app.desktop by echo "data on the .desktop file"
> .local/applications/app.desktop and change the Exec path or the version of
the app
2. run kbuildsycoca5
OBSERVED RESULT
the application on the application launcher will not change the version nor the
Exec (eventhought if we go to right click -> edit application one will see the
changes, but still the original version will show in the application launcher
and it will open the old Exec)
EXPECTED RESULT
that the application will update the version and the Exec
