Title:
package menu entries should use Exec=/bin/sh
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice --writer %U
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
This bug isn't upstream but it is relevant to the Ubuntu packaging.
The current menu entries have indirect invocation. This infers
intermediate dash shell invocation and thus slowdowns the startup.
Moreover, not using direct file path infers a useless additional load
due to the lookup time.
With the Xubuntu 12.04 (precise) package, the menu entry description provides
the
below command :
---
j@portable:~$ grep -i exec /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-writer.desktop
Exec=libreoffice --writer %U
Exec=libreoffice --writer %U
j@portable:~$
---
The above command line is equivalent to the below pseudo instructions :
---
j@portable:~$ which libreoffice
/usr/bin/libreoffice
j@portable:~$ file /usr/bin/libreoffice
/usr/bin/libreoffice: symbolic link to `../lib/libreoffice/program/soffice'
j@portable:~$ file /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice: POSIX shell script, ASCII text
executable
j@portable:~$ /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice --writer
---
I think the /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-writer.desktop file should
provide the below command line instead :
---
Exec=/bin/sh /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice --writer %U
