Public bug reported:

ISSUE:

Recently used "KDE4" applications do not appear in the Recently Used
section of the Unity Dash.

Security & Privacy settings are as follows:
Record file and application usage (ON)
Include: Chat logs (checked); Documents (checked); Music (checked); Pictures 
(checked); Presentations (checked); Spreadsheets (checked); Videos (checked)

Applications that are impacted include: KolourPaint, KRename,
KGoldRunner, Kolf, KSquares, KSudoko, Kalzium, K3b, KDevelop 4, etc.

This issue appears to occur for any application whose *.desktop file is
located in:

    /usr/share/applications/kde4


EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

Recently used KDE4 applications SHOULD appear in the Recently Used
section of the Unity Dash.

This is normal behavior for other applications:
- "Regular" (non-KDE4) applications appear in the Recently Used section of the 
Unity Dash.
- Gnome applications applications appear in the Recently Used section of the 
Unity Dash.


TEST/RECREATE ISSUE:

1. Install KolourPaint

   $ sudo apt-get install kolourpaint4

2. Install KWordQuiz

   $ sudo apt-get install kwordquiz

3. Log out, and log back in (so newly installed applications appear in
Dash)

4. Confirm that Gnome applications appear in the Recently Used section of Dash
   (Normal Behavior)

   4a. Click the Ubuntu (bfb) button in the Launcher
   4b. Click on the Applications Lens, and expand the installed section
   4c. Scroll down and select a Gnome application, such as Archive Manager
   4d. Click on Archive Manager to launch it
   4e. Close Archive Manager
   4f. Click the Ubuntu (bfb) button in the Launcher
   4g. On the Home Lens, note that Archive Manager is listed in the 
Applications section
   4h. Click on the Applications Lens
   4i. On the Applications Lens, note that Archive Manager is listed in the 
Recently Used section

5. Confirm that "regular" KDE applications appear in the Recently Used section 
of Dash
   (Normal Behavior)

   5a. Click the Ubuntu (bfb) button in the Launcher
   5b. Click on the Applications Lens, and expand the installed section
   5c. Scroll down and select a KDE application, such as KWordQuiz
   5d. Click on KWordQuiz to launch it

section of Dash
   (Error Behavior)
