Description

not found in ~/.local/share/applications but on the desktop directly
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the idalib code that searches for desktop entry files and reproduce the report with an entry placed directly on the Desktop. Trace why ~/.local/share/applications is searched without finding that file; done means the relevant desktop entry is discovered in both locations.
