Bug ID: 467796
Summary: Two Kmail icons appearing in dock
Classification: Applications
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.22.2
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
Reporter: georg.schw...@freenet.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Using XFCE with Plank as a dock, two Kmail icons appear in the dock when kmail
is running, both labelled "KMail". One of the icons is featuring a zero in a
red filled circle.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install plank (other docks might exhibit the same phenomenon) on XFCE (not
sure if other desktop environments exhibit the same issue)
2. launch kmail
OBSERVED RESULT
two KMail icons in the dock
EXPECTED RESULT
only one Kmail icon in the dock
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Manjaro Linux with XFCE
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This might be related to the following bug report:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359600
Also, it is conspicuous that KMail's .desktop file does not have a StartWMClass
entry.
Adding StartWMClass=kmail does not change things though.
However I noticed when I add that line to kmail_view.desktop, still two icons
appear in the dock, but one of them is now labelled "kmail view" instead of
just "kmail".
Are two applications (threads or whatever it is called) launched, and the
desktop environment does not understand that they are in fact one single kmail
instance?
