Public bug reported:
In searching the desktop file for suitability, it scans for all lines
that begin "Exec", and takes the result and packs it into a variable.
If there is exactly one Exec line, this takes out a command name to test
for existence, but when more than one matches, the program name is
captured as "firstexecprog\nsecondexecprog\nthirdexecprog", and "which"
doesn't know how to look up a program like that and the subsequent tests
fail.
