Bug ID: 404789
Summary: Refresh user application desktop files
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.15.1
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Menu (Kicker)
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: sh.siddhar...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
On ArchLinux, changes to system desktop files are automatically rebuilt after
each update by pacman. However, it is a little more difficult to change user
desktop files.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make changes to user desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications
OBSERVED RESULT
Changes are not reflected in Kicker
EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a user visible way to refresh the entries. I know about
kbuildsycoca5 after a web search, but I think from a usability perspective,
there should be a graphical way to refresh the desktop files, maybe in the
context menu or in the Menu editor.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
