Nicolas Fella <nicolas.fe...@gmx.de> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |nicolas.fe...@gmx.de Status|REPORTED |CONFIRMED Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #2 from Nicolas Fella <nicolas.fe...@gmx.de> --- The problem is this: Editing a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications wouln't work because of insufficient permissions. Therefore when the user tries to edit such a file a copy is created in .local/share/applications that takes precedence over the one in /usr. Editing a .desktop file in .local/share/applications works and therefore it will be edited directly. In the flatpak case where .local/share/foo.desktop is a symlink to another desktop file Kicker thinks the desktop file is editable by the user, but the actual symlink target is not (because of insufficient permission) and editing fails -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
