[Bug 1747814] Re: Snapped applications using ubuntu launcher integration needs desktop update

 

Hi Lukasz,

While for bug #1747802 this would indeed make sense, for this specific
not really, since this affects mostly the snapcrafter's (as these fixes
will apply to apps running inside snaps built in a xenial-based distro),
and snapcraft isn't supporting artful anyway.

Title:
  Snapped applications using ubuntu launcher integration needs desktop
  update

Status in libunity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libunity source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Launching a snapped application with ubuntu launcher icon integration
  doesn't properly work as the desktop ID does not use the proper
  namespace.

  Also, a snapped app could decorate other apps outside the snap scope.

  [ Test case ]

  git clone https://github.com/3v1n0/ubuntu-launcher-integration-snap.git
  cd ubuntu-launcher-integration-snap
  snapcraft prime
  snap try prime

  Then launch those (you might do it from dash/activities to get proper matching):
   ubuntu-launcher-integration-snap.ubuntu-launcher
   ubuntu-launcher-integration-snap.ubuntu-launcher-2nd
   ubuntu-launcher-integration-snap.ubuntu-launcher-hardcoded

  All these apps should get an icon in the launcher with emblems (of
  different values when they're launched together).

  [ Regression potential ]

  Application with SNAP environments could point to wrong desktop-file
  to decorate
