I strongly believe that Excel and PowerPoint should be listed as Keywords. LibreOffice does read and write Excel & PowerPoint files and someone looking for an app to do that on Linux should see LibreOffice as an option.
The use of the trademarks is for interoperability. Searching for Excel or PowerPoint in the GNOME Activities Overview or Unity's Dash currently doesn't turn up any results at all which doesn't seem right. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950834 Title: Add keywords to .desktop files Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Confirmed Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Fix Released Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: You should, for example, be able to find Calc in the Unity dash if you type "Excel". One may ask Average Joe to "create a slideshow", so "slide" should find Impress. Of course, you could find many more potential keywords (and this is even more useful in some other languages). So, please add a "keywords" section in libreoffice-*.desktop files.
