            Bug ID: 484945
           Summary: Duplicate menu entries after editing desktop file
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmenuedit
           Version: 6.0.3
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: k...@mentalfossa.com
  Target Milestone: ---

After editing Telegram menu entry (via right click) (eg, to add options),
duplicate entries later appear in the menu.

Problem appears to be caused by the filename Telegram has chosen:
`org.telegram.desktop.desktop`

The double `.desktop` extention is collapsed when the file is saved to
`~/.local/share/applications` as `org.telegram.desktop`.  The mismatched file
names are then considered separate entries, and Telegram appears twice in the
menu.

Telegram devs consider this a KDE bug and refuse to rename the desktop file.

As far as I can tell, filenames with double `.desktop` extension is not
forbidden by XDG Desktop Menu Specification.
