Bug ID: 449108 Summary: Discover launches way too many instances of some programs Product: Discover Version: 5.23.5 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: discover Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk Reporter: karlsson.gabr...@gmail.com CC: aleix...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 145896 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=145896&action=edit The two examples found of this happening SUMMARY Discover has a handy "Launch" button which should help a user get right to the application after install. Krita is a fascinating exception, instead getting launched around 20× over. KDE Connect is similar but less extreme, getting launched 5 times. (See the attached screenshot) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Discover 2. Install Krita or KDE Connect 3. Click the "Launch" option OBSERVED RESULT The application gets launched a lot of times EXPECTED RESULT The application gets launched once SOFTWARE KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - Testing this with KDE Connect will be much kinder to your computer. I recommend trying that if you want to check out the bug. - This bug seems to be caused by Discover launching all desktop files associated with a program, not just the one you get in your application menu. I assume this from all the entries of the respective software in /usr/share/applications/. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
