Bug ID: 485316
Summary: Merkuro Mail does not show in menu
Classification: Applications
Product: Merkuro
Version: 24.02.1
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The Merkuro Mail application is difficult to launch, since it does not appear
in the menu.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Merkuro Mail from Discover
2. Open the menu and search for Merkuro
OBSERVED RESULT
The Merkuro calendar and contacts applications are listed in the search
results, but not the mail one.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Merkuro mail application should appear in the search results alongside the
calendar and contacts ones.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The corresponding desktop file for the Merkuro mail app features a
`NoDisplay=true` field, which explains why it is hidden from the search
results. It looks like it is a deliberate
[move](https://invent.kde.org/pim/merkuro/-/commit/77c1dd6d18019498c1293304cb9eb3bfc3e4dd7d)
upstream, but I could not find the rationales for it.
I fail to understand what's the point of deliberately hiding an app like this.
It is properly advertised as beta quality in the description. Hiding it makes
collecting valuable user's feedback more difficult. I wish the upstream commit
were more explicit about this decision.
