Created attachment 169057 [details] libre system shortcuts SUMMARY I tried to modify LibreOffice Writer shortcut (adding environment), but it showed permission error. "Could not save properties due to insufficient access to: /home/me/.local/share/applications/libre...desktop". That was weird, because it is under my home directory. I wend to that directory, and found that the .desktop file's owner is "root". It seems that LibreOffice shortcuts in "/usr/share/applications/" are, unlike others, linked files to "/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/xdg/....desktop", and Kickoff copies the link file to user's directory, not the source file of the file, which means that the copied link file in the user's directory points to the shortcut in the system directory that is owned by "root". It should copy the original ".desktop" file to the user's directory, not the link. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Arch Linux, install libreoffice-fresh from the "extra" repository. 2. In the menu, right click Writer, and try to change it and save it. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Could not save properties due to insufficient access EXPECTED RESULT Save a copy in the local "applications" directory.
