This is flatpak's (or snap's) to do. Also I really cannot reproduce, please be more specific in your bug reports. Explain what you saw and what you expected, instead of what should have been. It does. Or at least, it's supposed to. And this works for me with all the Flatpak apps I've ever used Discover to install. And yeah, what specific apps exhibit this issue?

I tried installing several apps (figma, speedcrunch and transmission) with flatpak source and neither created an application entry. That's odd, it works for me with those apps. Can you paste the output of the following commands: - `flatpak list` - `ls /var/lib/flatpak/app` - `ls /var/lib/flatpak/app/*/current/active/export/share/applications/` (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #4) > That's odd, it works for me with those apps. > > Can you paste the output of the following commands: > - `flatpak list` > - `ls /var/lib/flatpak/app` > - `ls /var/lib/flatpak/app/*/current/active/export/share/applications/` matej@matej ~> flatpak list Name Application ID Version Branch Installation NetBeans org.apache.netbeans 13 stable system Freedesktop Platform org.freedesktop.Platform 21.08.13 21.08 system Mesa org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default 21.3.8 21.08 system Intel org.freedesktop.Platform.VAAPI.Intel 21.08 system openh264 org.freedesktop.Platform.openh264 2.1.0 2.0 system Freedesktop SDK org.freedesktop.Sdk 21.08.13 21.08 system Breeze GTK theme org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze 3.22 system Zoom us.zoom.Zoom 5.10.6.2943 stable system matej@matej ~> ls /var/lib/flatpak/app org.apache.netbeans/ us.zoom.Zoom/ matej@matej ~> ls /var/lib/flatpak/app/*/current/active/export/share/applications/ /var/lib/flatpak/app/org.apache.netbeans/current/active/export/share/applications/: org.apache.netbeans.desktop* /var/lib/flatpak/app/us.zoom.Zoom/current/active/export/share/applications/: us.zoom.Zoom.desktop* The programs I mentioned above already uninstalled, but Zoom can be used as an example too. Based on that, it looks like the Zoom flatpak did indeed install its .desktop file successfully. You're not using fish shell as your login shell, are you? If so, this is https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3109.
