[Bug 1363721] Re: Duplicate "Security & Privacy" icons in Unity dash

 

Here's a simple patch to fix this issue.
It only changes "OnlyShowIn=Unity;" to "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;" in gnome-activity-log-manager-panel.desktop.
I've tested this in the launcher installed in /usr/share/applications/ in my system and the issue is solved, and System Settings continues to display the launcher for "Security & Privacy".

The fix is trivial and only changes one line in a .desktop file, so an Ubuntu developer should be able to apply this fix to Utopic and Trusty very quickly (and also to the Activity Log Manager project by the team).
And an updated package can probably be released for Trusty without even going though trusty-proposed because of the trivial nature of the fix.

Title:
  Duplicate "Security & Privacy" icons in Unity dash

Status in Privacy Manager for Zeitgeist:
  New
Status in “activity-log-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04, activity-log-manager 0.9.7-0ubuntu14.

  My Unity dash contains two entries for "Security & Privacy".

  In /usr/share/applications, there are two .desktop files which this
  string in them: gnome-activity-log-manager-panel.desktop and unity-
  activity-log-manager-panel.desktop. Both of these files can be tracked
  to the 'activity-log-manager' package.

  I'm thinking gnome-activity-log-manager-panel.desktop should be
  excluded from Unity, by changing "OnlyShowIn=Unity;" to
  "NotShowIn=Unity;"?
