Public bug reported:
When launching Simple Scan on a system upgraded from Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble
Numbat) to Ubuntu 25.10 (Resolute Roo) via do-release-upgrade, the
application appears with a generic icon in the GNOME dock while running.
The icon displays correctly in the application grid.
The simple-scan.desktop file does not include a StartupWMClass entry.
Adding the following line to /usr/share/applications/simple-scan.desktop
resolves the issue:
