I am having a related problem I think. I noticed that when I activate and deactivated icons from the system->Preferences->Main Menu I get multiple copy of the same application in .local/share/applications folder. Also after uninstalling some of the programs I noticed that their icons don't disappear.
I am using Hardy Linux 2.6.24.10-generic, Gnome 2.21.92 Thanks -- lost of apps icons after using "add and remove..." of apps menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139211 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
