This was a nasty one! I never thought to test renaming non-desktop files on the desktop. Anyway I fixed this by making sure that the file has a [Desktop Entry] group before writing to the file. This is back-ported to the KDE_2_2_BRANCH so the fix should appear in KDE 2.2.1 -- Kurt Granroth | http://www.granroth.org KDE Developer/Evangelist | SuSE Labs Open Source Developer granroth@kde.org | granroth@suse.com KDE -- Conquer Your Desktop |
