Title:
Add timeout before removing launcher
Status in Unity:
Fix Released
Status in Unity for Arch:
Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Please add a timeout to the G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_DELETED event before
actually removing the icon from the launcher. This is necessary for
some package managers, whose upgrade processes work differently from
dpkg.
dpkg upgrade process:
********************************
Install /usr/share/applications/something.desktop.dpkg-new
Move /usr/share/applications/something.desktop.dpkg-new to
/usr/share/applications/something.desktop
********************************
Arch's pacman upgrade progress:
********************************
Remove /usr/share/applications/something.desktop
Install /usr/share/applications/something.desktop
********************************
This causes launcher icons to disappear whenever packages are updated.
A timeout would help alleviate this issue.
Btw, the discussion took place on the unity-dev mailing list here:

I'd also like to point out that this patch was not written by me. It
was written by Marco Trevisan :)
