Description qoheniac 2021-07-06 11:32:27 UTC

SUMMARY
Okular's desktop files are missing the StartupWMClass entry and because of this multiple instances of these applications aren't grouped together in GNOME's dash.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run GNOME Shell
2. Open multiple instances of Okular
3. Look at GNOME Dash

OBSERVED RESULT
GNOME Dash shows one icon per Okular instance

EXPECTED RESULT
GNOME Dash shows one Okular icon

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora 34
GNOME Shell 40.2
KDE Framework 5.83.0
Qt 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Okular is the KDE application I use most but I saw missing StartupWMClass entries for other KDE applications too (e. g. KBibTeX). I also reported the bug downstream:

You'll should really go and bug Gnome's dash to not be so broken.

Anyhow https://invent.kde.org/graphics/okular/-/commit/d8845025f2e43836411a079c05c98a6a9507c1a0
