[Bug 803664] Re: Desktop file directories under $XDG_DATA_DIRS/applications/* don't support hyphen in name

 

Hello,
as part of the bug clean up ahead of 16.04 LTS I'm marking this as invalid because it affects an Ubuntu release which is now unsupported. If you can still recreate this bug in a supported release please do open a new bug and we can triage it for consideration in the 16.04 LTS development cycle.

Regards
NickTh
