If you have a binary > called "gedit" and a desktop file of org.gnome.gedit.desktop, it is entirely > legal to keep your prgname as gedit, because then "killall gedit" works fine. I can say for sure that GNOME Shell application matching in previous GNOME releases does not work unless prgname is set to the name of the desktop file. See for instance GNOME Chess 3.10, with a binary named gnome-chess and a desktop file glchess.desktop. I set the prgname to glchess, or else GNOME Shell displayed a blurry icon and the name of the binary (or was it the desktop file?) rather than "GNOME Chess" in the app menu when running gnome-chess in jhbuild. (I later renamed the desktop file to match the binary and got rid of the call that sets prgname at the same time.) We also have a wiki page instructing developers to set prgname to match the desktop file: <a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShell/ApplicationBased">https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShell/ApplicationBased</a></pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are on the CC list for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
