[Bug 869879] [NEW] Desktop ID is not extracted correctly

 

Public bug reported:

Desktop IDs are not simple basenames of the full desktop file path.
According to freedesktop's menu spec, subdirectories of AppDir (usually
XDG_DATA_DIR / applications) are also part of the ID, ie
/usr/share/applications/kde4/kate.desktop has desktop ID
kde4-kate.desktop, not just kate.desktop.
