[Bug 1161423] Re: Removing a webapp from the software center doesn't remove its shortcut from the dash

 

Removed software-center from affects list as it has nothing to do with
this. Marked as incomplete as 2 people have stated it works as expected.

If you've got the .desktop file for the app in ~/.local/share/icons/
then it was not added there by a package. But was added by selecting to
add the integration when visiting the site in Firefox or Chromium.
Packages should not and cannot touch files in user directories, only
system files. You will need to remove any per-user configuration on your
own.

** No longer affects: software-center

** Summary changed:

- Removing a webapp from the software center doesn't remove its shortcut from the dash
+ Removing a webapp package doesn't remove its shortcut from the dash

** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

** Changed in: hundredpapercuts
       Status: New => Incomplete
