Here are my observations after looking into this issue: * Using the version 4.3 available in the ppa the symlinks are created correctly (they point to correct launchers in /usr/share/applications) * However, for Unity to launch them from the desktop they are required to be executable (which is not the case for any of the launchers - not only the libreoffice ones) - otherwise they are reported as being untrusted and refused to be launched. * The 'untrusted check' cannot be disabled in Unity for precise. * There are two workarounds possible: a) adding the +x permissions to the launchers in /usr/share/applications b) copying (not symlinking) the launchers in question to the user's Desktop directory and making them executable there.
Most probably this is a won't fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1386170 Title: Libreoffice startup center shorcut broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1386170/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
