# PROBLEM When pressing keyboard shortcut to launch an application. (In this case: Visual Studio Code.) Error message appears in `journalctl --user --follow`: > Jul 18 12:51:57 sm kglobalaccel5[2357]: kstart: Unknown option 'unity-launch'. # ADDITIONAL NECESSARY DETAILS (this is where the "unity-launch" comes from) > cat /usr/share/applications/code-oss.desktop | grep --perl '\[|Exec|Name' > [Desktop Entry] > Name=Code - OSS > GenericName=Text Editor > Exec=/usr/bin/code-oss --unity-launch %F > > [Desktop Action new-empty-window] > Name=New Empty Window > Exec=/usr/bin/code-oss --new-window %F # VERSIONS Plasma: plasma-desktop 5.25.3-1 KDE: frameworkintegration 5.96.0-1 Qt5: qt5-base 5.15.5+kde+r170-1 Qt6:: qt6-base 6.3.1-1 /usr/bin/kstart is owned by kde-cli-tools 5.25.3-1 at https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/20eef2b9a3a158f66b1296cd7fa7d9e8b4bcb606/trunk/PKGBUILD kglobalaccel 5.96.0-1 at https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/3ff4c4f522e831aa06d00d44a1d0a3ce5ac17827/trunk/PKGBUILD Operating System: Arch Linux Kernel: Linux 5.18.12-arch1-1 Architecture: x86-64 # OTHER Suggestion: change title from "kstart5 fails to launch applications when arguments supplied" to: "kstart fails to launch application when it's .desktop entry contains arguments" Sorry. I meant to say: Suggestion: change title from "kstart5 fails to launch applications when arguments supplied" to: "Launching application with keyboard shortcut: kstart fails to launch application when the application's .desktop entry contains arguments" I don't know the proper procedur (if I'm allowed to do this), , but since this bug is not "CONFIRMED", I will change it to be, because now two different users have experienced this same issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 440507 *** |
