Thank you in advance! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-menus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765799 Title: Applications menu does not get populated with recently installed apps using apt Status in gnome-menus package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-menus source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] Applications menu for GNOME3 based desktop environments doesn't get populated with recently installed app using apt or GUI apps like gnome-software, budgie-welcome (Ubuntu Budgie) Users need to physically logout and login again before they see the application appear in their menu. This is an intermittent issue - some installs work correctly, some installs dont display in the menu. After logging out and logging in, those installs that didnt display, now appear in the menu. This affects all desktop environments that use gnome-menus to recognise new/changed/deleted applications. Primarily this would be Unity and Budgie Desktop. Not sure about GNOME Shell or other desktop environments [Test Case] Install an application using apt (command line), GNOME Software or through budgie-welcome (Ubuntu Budgie only) - The application icon should appear in the menu of the desktop environment being used. Remove an application through apt, GNOME Software and/or budgie- welcome (ubuntu budgie) - The application icon should disappear from the menu of the desktop environment being used Repeat the above two test cases several times (e.g. 10x) with different applications [Regression Potential] Arguably the risk is that the patch introduces potential instability into the installation sequence that could cause crashes. That's the worst case scenario. The mitigation here is that the patch is the exact same patch used in 17.04 and 17.10. It was also used in 16.04 and 16.10 - in these two cases the patch did not contain a one line fix introduced in 17.04 that fixed a crashing race issue in budgie-desktop. [Other Info] Consultation with the uploader to 18.04 (Jeremy) is a must here to discuss possibly reasons why when merging with Debian, the ubuntu specific patch was not readded. ---- Below is the original description Applications menu doesn't get populated with recently installed app using apt. For example, after installing Firefox using apt, its shortcut does not appear immediately in the applications main menu. It only appeared there after I rebooted (maybe logging off also does the job). A “refresh menu” action has to be triggered somehow after installations.
