[Bug 725988] Re: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name
Please drop the patch! Don't change the window class! I think it is bad solution because changing the window class causes unwanted side-effects. For example, the settings in ~/.Xresources file are not working at all (LP #949126), and probably the other programs which refer to the wm_class to find Emacs window also will not work correctly. This issue affects only GNOME Shell users, but the problems caused by changing the wm_class happen to all Emacs users! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725988 Title: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/725988/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please reopen. I cannot understand why EMACS_CLASS has been changed for such a minor issue.

[Bug 725988] Re: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name
Users really shouldn't have to edit a configuration file to make application tracking work correctly. If this breaks existing things, we could just rename the emacsVER.desktop file to emacs.desktop, which should fix it as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725988 Title: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/725988/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 725988] Re: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name
Just renaming emacsVER.desktop to emacs.desktop actually works, but that causes another issue that the emacs.desktop file will conflict with the other flavor's one. So I suggest the solution as follows: 1. Install upstream emacs.desktop file into /usr/share/emacs/23.3/etc/ 2. Use the Debian alternatives system for /usr/share/applications/emacs.desktop by adding the following to emacsVER.postinst: --slave /usr/share/applications/emacs.desktop emacs.desktop \ /usr/share/emacs/@FULL_VERSION@/etc/emacs.desktop \ 3. Remove @MENU_VERSION@ from StartupWMClass in emacsVER.desktop Note that emacsVER.desktop is still necessary when the multiple flavors (emacs23, emacs24, emacs-snapshot, etc.) are installed. emacsVER.desktop will be used to launch the desired flavor's Emacs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725988 Title: WM_CLASS needs to match .desktop file name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/725988/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
