--- Comment #40 from [email protected] ---
The core of this bug I should have mentioned. Is that is too hard under Linux
currently to create .desktop files.
xdg-open command was created to allow files to be opened with default
application. So its really not that hard to code up a .desktop file to open a
document and have it behave like a OS X alias or Windows lnk/shortcut the issue
is Linux/BSD/Unixish file managers and graphical environment currently don't
provide this.
After that there is then the issue of opening .desktop files with libreoffice
and extracting the document hidden. Of course that bug in libreoffice cannot
be opened until Linux file managers and environment work out exactly how they
are going to do the .desktop file in this case.
There are a lot of projects closing bugs with NOTABUG that should be closed
with NOTOURBUG and then provide the person complaining about issue where they
should be taking the issue. In this case its file managers and environment
issues that are not libreoffice domain.
Symlink issue how it should be handled that is a standard body issue that has
not been addressed. So there are more than 2 real bugs here.
Yes every file manager for Linux basically has a bug when it comes to .desktop
files so that is quite a number of bugs.
