[Bug 874265] Re: Launcher - remove the embossed 'home' image from the Nautilus Launcher icon

 

Pushed a one-line solution that simply changes the requested icon in the
distro-added 'nautilus-home.desktop', that is subsequently sourced by
Unity.  In the middle of debugging this, I also encountered a weird case
where the Launcher entry for 'nautilus-home' was dropped from the static
list of Launcher entries.  This mask list is stored by Unity in
gsettings; I had to reset the list to default with:

  gsettings reset com.canonical.Unity.Launcher favorites

which restored the full-set; currently:

  ['nautilus-home.desktop', 'firefox.desktop', 'libreoffice-
writer.desktop', 'libreoffice-calc.desktop', 'libreoffice-
impress.desktop', 'ubuntu-software-center.desktop', 'ubuntuone-
installer.desktop', 'gnome-control-center.desktop']

** Changed in: ubuntu-mono
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

** Package changed: ubuntu-mono (Ubuntu) => nautilus (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed

  ----------------------------------
  Note from User Testing:

  In user testing, participants use 'home' (Nautilus Launcher) to find
  or access everything in their computer.  Many thought that the Dash
  was the equivalent of the start button in Windows whereas 'home' was
  their computer.
