Title: gnome-control-center doesn't ignore '%f' in desktop file Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The "Desktop Entry Specification" says about the "Exec" key in .desktop files (in http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry- spec/latest/ar01s06.html): If the application should not open any file the %f, %u, %F and %U field codes must be removed from the command line and ignored. gnome-control-center doesn't do that but calls the command with the "%f" still in the command line. This leads to errors when adding a program to the g-c-c that takes an optional file parameter.
