[Bug 1499322] Re: Wily: No Dash Icon After Package Install Until New Session

 

With Ultraedit (www.idmcomp.com) I found that a re-install made the
program icon visible in the dash (tested twice). I didn't need to log
out and log back in again. I've also seen this bug affect synaptic.

Title:
  Wily:  No Dash Icon After Package Install Until New Session

Status in dash package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  15.10 Wily, updated :

  After installing a package (standard repo packages) via apt/apt-
  get/Synaptic, that item is not found by a Dash search and its icon
  does not appear in a manual display of applications in Dash.

  Appropriate .desktop files are placed in /usr/share/applications.

  The items can be found in a new session, i.e., after logging out and
  logging in.

  I've seen this repeatedly on multiple clean installs from the dailies.

  Apt is at:  1.0.9.10ubuntu7

  Dash is:   0.5.7-4ubuntu2
