Title: can't add KDE apps to GNOME dock Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, I clean installed Ubuntu 18.04 yesterday and noticed I couldn't add KDE apps to the GNOME dock. Basically, the "Add to Favorites" option is missing from the right-click menu of dock icons of currently- running KDE apps. If I search for a KDE app using the "Show Applications" button, and right-click on an app in the search results before running it, that menu does contain "Add to Favorites". However, if this is used, the added app behaves incorrectly, in that clicking on its icon in the dock always launches a new instance rather than bringing any existing instance to the front. Previously I used Ubuntu 14.04 (with Unity) and KDE apps could be added to the dock and managed as expected (i.e. clicking app icon when app is running brought it to the front). Some searching around suggests this might be related to missing StartWMClass fields in the .desktop files of the KDE apps. I added StartWMClass=kate to /usr/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop and that seemed to fix the problem. However this didn't work for Konsole, so there might be more to fixing this in general. I think this is probably either a KDE bug (they need to correct all their .desktop files?), a GNOME bug, or at the very least an Ubuntu- level regression in the Unity->GNOME transition that may justify taking action somewhere.
