Title: Geany missing icon in WBar
Post by: KHarvey on September 27, 2012, 02:55:27 PM

On a fresh install of TC 4.6.1 I installed the following:
Chrome
Apache2
PHP5
Python
Firfox
MySQL
Geany

Upon the installation of Geany I noticed that a WBar icon was not created.  I installed everything on boot, and I tried removing and reinstalling it, and still had the same problem.  It's not a huge deal since I can create one myself, but thought I would let someone know.

just maintainer forgot to add line

Code: [Select]

X-FullPathIcon=/usr/local/share/pixmaps/geany.pngto /usr/local/share/applications/geany.desktop when updating geany.tcz
if you don't want to wait for fix you can do it yourself and then adding geany.desktop to backup

Code: [Select]

echo "usr/local/share/applications/geany.desktop" >> /opt/.filetool.lst

Hi vinnie
If it helps, here is a copy of the desktop file from the previous version.

I am not an expert, but have adjusted first wiki to link to menu/icon wiki and added your example line in icon wiki

Sorry to bring this one back from the dead, but out the last 3 TC builds that I have done 2 of them have been missing the Geany icon in Wbar.  I may have manually added the Geany icon using OnDemand for the 3rd, as it has been a while since I built that one.

I tried your fix by editing the geany.desktop, but so far I have been unable to edit that file.  It is a read-only file (even with sudo).  I have not played with the permissions on it yet, as I didn't want to break geany, since it does work from the CLI.

Hi KHarvey
Unpack the extension using  unsquashfs, edit the file, and repack.

Or rename it, copy it to geany.desktop, edit it and add it to .filetool.lst.
