Things look a little different when using gnome fallback session: 1. For applications that have shortcuts in /usr/share/applications drag'n'dropping creates a *copy* of the launcher on the desktop. The copy has a default access rights of 755 which allow execution. 2. For libreoffice-startcenter.desktop a symbolic link is created on the desktop instead (probably because /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop is a symbolic link itself).
So as a workaround the user may either: 1. sudo chmod +x /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop, or 2. cp /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop ~/Desktop A proper solution could consist of substituting the /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop symlink with a copy (similarly like it already happens for the individual libreoffice apps - writer, calc etc.). -- 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
