[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2092803] Re: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS
I only have a superficial knowledge of this subject, but I try to gather all the information I find. So hopefully this helps. It seems to me that RawTherapee is trying to conform to AppStream. I guess that the AppStream data file is the one from the RawTherapee repo: https://github.com/Beep6581/RawTherapee/blob/dev/com.rawtherapee.RawTherapee.appdata.xml It seems to me that the snap is created with the information provided there. The snap 'common-id' matches the AppStream 'id' -> com.rawtherapee.RawTherapee And the AppStream 'launchable' reads as 'rawtherapee.desktop', but at the same time the desktop file in 'snap/gui/' reads as com.rawtherapee.RawTherapee.desktop But now I'm confused what's the correct way to solve this. Is renaming the desktop file according to the string from AppStream->launchable the way to go? At least that's my interpretation from the snap documentation, which says that introducing a 'common-id' leads to "This will cause this app to use the .desktop launcher specified in the AppStream file." - that would be 'rawtherapee.desktop' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2092803 Title: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In some instances, the GNOME dash does not group different instances with the same wmclass.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2092803] Re: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS
Slight correction from the analysis above, gnome-shell does not use DesktopFile from `snap routine portal-info $(pidof rawtherapee)` (yet), but uses `/proc/$(pidof rawtherapee)/attr/current` instead. `/proc/$(pidof rawtherapee)/attr/current` reads out as `snap.rawtherapee.rawtherapee` which is mangled into `rawtherapee_rawtherapee` and used as desktop filename. Instead, the desktop filename is "rawtherapee_com.rawtherapee.RawTherapee.desktop" which does not match, so gnome-shell refuses it as intended. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2092803 Title: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In some instances, the GNOME dash does not group different instances with the same wmclass.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2092803] Re: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS
James, is the rawtherapee snap doing something wrong, or is this a snapd bug? I see it does not specify apps: rawtherapee: desktop: <> in snap/manifest.yaml, but still it has an entry at `/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/rawtherapee_com.rawtherapee.RawTherapee.desktop` so snapd is at least aware of a desktop file. ** Also affects: snapd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2092803 Title: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In some instances, the GNOME dash does not group different instances with the same wmclass.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2092803] Re: GNOME dash not grouping snap application instances according to same WM_CLASS
snaps are only allowed to match the desktop file they provide, so StartupWMClass does not actually matter.
