[Bug 1231966] [NEW] Fails to activate mediascanner due to NoDisplay=true

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

mediaplayer-app has NoDisplay=true; this causes application-legacy startup to fail to set APP_EXEC in desktop-exec with:
** (process:4703): WARNING **: Desktop file 'mediaplayer-app' is set to not display, not copying

** (process:4703): CRITICAL **: main: assertion 'execline != NULL'
failed

It seems helpers.c is bailing out when NoDisplay=true; not sure why,
this is meant here not to show mediaplayer in the list of apps on the
dash but shouldn't stop starting it?

Cheers,

** Affects: upstart-app-launch (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
