Title:
Use non-compatibility .desktop files by default
Status in gnome-pkg-tools package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
/usr/bin/pkg-gnome-compat-desktop-file in gnome-pkg-tools creates
compatibilty .desktop's for some GNOME apps that have switched their
.desktop name.
An example is /usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop that was
renamed upstream as org.gnome.FileRoller.desktop (apparently the new
style makes Flatpak integration easier?).
In Xenial, the compatibility script sets NoDisplay=true in the new
.desktop.
I think we'd want to convert users over to the new .desktop's instead
of keeping them on the old ones so that eventually the old ones can be
dropped. I think we'd need to have an upgrade script update at least
'com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites' and 'org.gnome.shell
favorite-apps'.
