There are several .desktop files for brasero, including which : /home/jerome/.local/share/applications/brasero.desktop /usr/share/applications/brasero.desktop
Apparently the one in the user's directory overrides the one in "share". The one in ~/.local reads : Exec=brasero -e %U The one in /usr/share : Exec=brasero %U There seems to be a bug, at least on my computer, with the -e option that makes brasero silently crash : https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597808 Workaround : remove -e option in /home/jerome/.local/share/applications/brasero.desktop I'm leaving the bug open. If I'm not the only one where -e makes brasero crash, then it could be worth modifying the .desktop file in the package until the -e bug is fixed upstream. (Anyway, the -e option seems to be useless : opening on new project page is the default behaviour. Therefore, I believe it can be safely removed.) ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #597808 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597808 -- [XFCE] Brasero does not launch from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336366 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
