Public bug reported:
Launching xfce4-appfinder after editing a menu entry with menulibre
makes xfce4-appfinder unable to search applications.
This only happens when `Keep running instance in the background` is
enabled in xfce4-appfinder settings.
Testcase:
- Set `Keep running instance in the background` inside xfce4-appfinder settings
- Launch xfce4-appfinder (META+R)
- Type `menulibre` and open `Menu Editor`
- Toggle `Hide from menus` in Web Browser entry and save the changes
- Close menulibre
- Launch xfce4-appfinder (META+R)
Expected:
- Typing in xfce4-appfinder finds an application
Actual:
- xfce4-appfinder app list is blank and typing doesn't match anything
This can be fixed by unchecking `Keep running instance in the
background` then closing xfce4-appfinder and reopening it.
I have been living with this since Bionic and it's still present in
Focal.
