Title:
  Desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications are not picked up when
  updated

Status in unity-lens-applications package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If you modify a desktop file in /usr/share/applications (say change
  leafpad's name to leafpad - changed), it gets picked up immediately
  after saving the file when using the dash (by typing leaf, "leafpad -
  changed" would pop up.

  For files in ~/.local/share/applications, this does not hold. Editing
  them is not picked up by the dash and presumably the bamf. One needs
  to usually change the name of the desktop file for it to be noticed.
  And that does not work 100 % either.
