Hi Plasma team, I'm a developer of GCompris and we recently had an issue with our desktop file (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409996). Luigi proposed to ask you to know if changing the name of it would be an issue or have some unseen consequences for application managers?

I don't really have an answer for this. I would suggest asking the Plasma team for confirmation. They probably know also whether renaming has can make application managers think that this is a new program. > And if yes, do I just > have to change the filenames (for both) and the translation can be > automatically retrieved (or will I have to do some svn move)? A manual rename would be needed for the templates and the files, but I can help with that. Ciao -- Luigi
