Title:
Duplicate System Settings & System Monitor in Gnome/Unity
Status in Ayatana Design:

Bug description:
Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace
With today's rename of gnome-control-center to "System Settings" (LP:
#733234), Unity users who install Kubuntu will have a difficult time
opening the Settings app from the Unity Dash as there will be two
applications using the same icon and with the same System Settings
name. See the attached screenshot. It is the second (out of 3
actually) icon that is the "real" gnome-control-center.
I believe the fix for this is to add a OnlyShowIn=KDE; line to
systemsettings.desktop. This has the disadvantage of making it more
difficult for Ubuntu users of KDE apps to configure KDE-wide
configurations.
An alternative is to rename KDE's app as "KDE System Settings" or
"Kubuntu System Settings".
This problem also exists for System Monitor except that the Gnome
System Monitor is the first choice, not the second one.
