Title:
  after installing emacs 24 on 12.04 icon broken in launcher, and
  missing from dash

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've installed emacs 24 from the ppa and the icon didn't appear in the
  launcher until I manually opened the app from the terminal.  Even then
  it wouldn't work right, i.e. it wouldn't launch the emacs after I had
  closed it down, and would even turn into a ? sometimes.  Also emacs
  didn't appear in the applications section of the dash.

  After logging out and back in again, an icon did appear and works, but
  it has a different name "emacs snapshot (GTK)" that what you get if
  you start emacs from the terminal.  That brings up a totally different
  icon.
