Public bug reported: Binary package hint: unity
sorry, making a concise summary defeated me on this one. :-) If you start an application from the commandline, it runs, it puts an icon on the launcher, you can then right-click over that icon and select "Keep In Launcher". Then you quit the application. Trying to subsequently launch the application fails. The icon just pulses for a while, then gives up. And because this is unity, I have no idea if there's a file somewhere where I can *fix* the commandline the launcher is presumably trying to use, and no idea why it's failing (though my guess is the command it stored for launching is based on something like output from ps, and doesn't actually work).
