Bug ID: 479513
Summary: Newly installed applications are not indexed until
reboot
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.91.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: ales.ast...@gmail.com
CC: mikel5...@gmail.com, noaha...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
Installing a new program that provides a desktop file used to make it show up
in kickoff right away.
In Plasma 6 this doesn't happen, I need to `sudo update-desktop-database`, or
logout/reboot.
However it works in krunner?!
This also works correctly for applications that were previously indexed: when
removed they don't show up in kickoff anymore, and when re-installed they
immediatly show up in kickoff.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install an new application from Discover
2. Search for it in kickoff
3. Search for it in krunner
OBSERVED RESULT
Kickoff doesn't show it, krunner does
EXPECTED RESULT
Both kickoff and krunner show it
