Public bug reported:

I have the following backup.desktop file on my removable HDD

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Start Backup
Exec=bash -c '%k/.backup.sh;$SHELL'
OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Unity;MATE;LXDE;
Icon=lxterminal
Terminal=true
X-KeepTerminal=true
StartupNotify=true

as it says here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-
spec/latest/ar01s06.html

%k      The location of the desktop file as either a URI (if for example
gotten from the vfolder system) or a local filename or empty if no
location is known.

doubleclicking it in PcmanFM acts as its expected - it opens lxterminal
and runs .backup.sh

while the same in Thunar returns:
bash: /media/z/ZVs_WHITE/StartBackup.desktop/.backup.sh: Not a directory

error happens in %k as it should return just path to some.desktop file
instead it returns path+some.desktop in Thunar.
