Do we need to to appear as "Installed Apps" or "More suggestions" from the USC feed?
In the case of Installed Apps we need to ship an extra desktop file with the webapps packages (the ones already existing). At the moment, the desktop files are being generated at "runtime" by us. This is needed because we support "dynamic" launcher actions that are added to the desktop file on demand. So we would ship a desktop file with a webapp that needs to be "seen by the dash", and override it in ~/.local/share/applications (same as now) to be able to "customize" it on demand, In the case of "More suggestions", we need to tie in w/ USC and what's missing on their end. I added a blueprint for that task https://blueprints.launchpad.net/libunity-webapps/+spec/webapps-in-dash- app-lens -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libunity-webapps in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118322 Title: Uninstalled webapps don't appear in the Dash Apps Lens Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Committed Status in WebApps: libunity: Triaged Status in “libunity-webapps” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Uninstalled webapps don't appear in the Dash Apps Lens Because WebApps don't need to be 'installed' in the traditional sense, and they are very lightweight, we would like to ship 13.04 with all WebApps installed by default. This will solve the problem of WebApps not appearing in the Dash Apps Lens. We will still need the WebApps 'discovery' popup that appears under the URL bar in the Firefox and Chromium browsers. However we will need to change the text to say: "This website is available as an Ubuntu webapp. Would you like to pin it's icon to the Launcher?" The default button text should change to "Pin to Launcher", with a secondary option of "No thanks!" This change mirrors the work we are doing with the Smart Scopes project where all of the available scopes will be installed by default.
