Title:
  Imagemagick shouldn't show in default Ubuntu GNOME Activities Overview

Status in ubuntu-gnome-default-settings package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-gnome-default-settings source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Impact
  ======
  The ImageMagick app is ugly and has an unusual UI. Even worse, for some reason, clicking on the app in GNOME Shell's Activities Overview doesn't appear to do anything. Unfortunately, it is included in Debian's imagemagick package by default. The package is useful for its command-line scripts so we can't just not install the package.

  Even stranger, there are now 2 of these ImageMagick apps with the same
  name that does the same thing.

  This bug is a regression from Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS where the
  ImageMagick app was successfully hidden. The .desktop changed its name
  (display.im6.desktop > display-im6.desktop) and added a second
  .desktop.

  Triaging as "low" because it's a cosmetic issue (although it could be
  ranked higher because of the non-working app launchers)

  Test Case
  =========
  - Install the update to ubuntu-gnome-default-settings.
  - In GNOME Shell, open the Activities Overview. Click the Show Applications icon at the bottom left.
  - Look for ImageMagick in the list. If it's not listed, this bug is fixed.

  Regression Potential
  ===================
  If anyone actually uses the app, they can still launch it from Alt-F2 or the command line (just run 'display').

  If it wasn't for the fact that the .desktop's don't seem to work in
  GNOME Shell, a person could also override the override by copying
  /usr/share/applications/display.im6.desktop to
  ~/.local/share/application
