--- Comment #8 from Andrew Shark <[email protected]> ---
The same happens with LibreOffice in Arch Linux.

The libreoffice-fresh package contains files:
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/xdg/calc.desktop - the regular file
/usr/share/applications/libreoffice-calc.desktop - a simlink pointing to
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/xdg/calc.desktop

Now when I use "Edit Application" action, the file appears:
~/.local/share/applications/libreoffice-calc.desktop
but it is not a regular desktop file, instead, it is a symlink to the
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/xdg/calc.desktop

The utility should resolve symlinks, and copy the final desktop file, instead
of literally copying the desktop file from /usr/share/applications (which could
be a symlink).
