Description DariuszSki 2011-04-25 13:27:07 CEST
Description of problem:
Testing the install method of Mandriva 2010.1 to Mageia install (as Windows user might try). When you get to the KDE desktop of Mageia, in the kicker bar there is an icon left behind from the Mandriva install that no longer works, and should be removed.

Icon: mandriva-drake.desktop (there is no icon image - just default blank icon)

Run icon states: unable to run command specified, the file or folder file//user/share/applications/mandriva-drakconf.desktop does not exist.

Can be removed by the user, but to new users to Linux could be a pain, would rely on KDE desktop being unlocked.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia Beta1


How reproducible:
Install Mageia Beta1 over Mandriva 2010.1, then use KDE desktop as normal.

Please attach ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletrc .
Comment 2 DariuszSki 2011-04-25 18:14:41 CEST
The file is quite long, is it still needed, as I have deleted the offending shortcut a day before I posted the bug report?
Comment 3 Ahmad Samir 2011-04-25 20:31:54 CEST
If you've already delete the shortcut then then plasma-desktop-appletrc isn't useful any more.

I tested briefly and the only way mandriva-drakconf.desktop would show up in plasma-desktop-appletrc is if I add it manually to the panel. (i.e. it exist in the system-wide file in /var/lib/mageia/kde4-profiles/...., but doesn't exist in the local ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletrc, unless added manually).

It should be fixed with rc1
