A temporary workaround for that (until we get proper support for gdb
runs) is passing:

--desktop_file_hint=/path/to/your/file.desktop

The reason for that is we need a strong relationship between the app's
data and the process. Normally it's upstart providing us with that
relationship, but as you want to run outside of upstart, the above is a
temporary (unsupported) workaround.
