Description Matt Fagnani 2024-08-24 16:53:52 UTC 
SUMMARY

KWalletManager 24.08.0 didn't start when run from the Application Launcher menu with the error notification Launching KWalletManager (Failed): The name is not activatable in Plasma 6.1.4 on Wayland in a Fedora 41 KDE installation. The KWalletManager Application Launcher menu entry points to ~/.local/share/applications/org.kde.kwalletmanager.desktop with the name org.kde.kwalletmanager in the General tab of its Properties window which was created after the time of the update to KDE Gear 24.08.0. KWalletManager 24.08.0 started normally when I ran it from the System Settings KDE Wallet page's Launch Wallet Manager and with kwalletmanager5 in Konsole.

This problem didn't happen with KWalletManager 24.05.2 which has /usr/share/applications/org.kde.kwalletmanager5.desktop with the name org.kde.kwalletmanager5. The name change to org.kde.kwalletmanager in the desktop file might be involved. The commit Fix desktop file name https://invent.kde.org/utilities/kwalletmanager/-/commit/3478852e6600cbea7e87a32e5d11ca859fa59e1f#9a2aa4db38d3115ed60da621e012c0efc0172aae appeared to change the desktop file name from org.kde.kwalletmanager5.desktop to org.kde.kwalletmanager.desktop

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot a Fedora 41 KDE installation upgraded to KDE Gear 24.08.0
2. Log in to Plasma 6.1.4 on Wayland
3. Open the Application Launcher menu
4. Search for KWalletManager in the Application Launcher menu
5. Select KWalletManager in the Application Launcher menu

OBSERVED RESULT
KWalletManager 24.08.0 didn't start when run from the Application Launcher menu with the error notification Launching KWalletManager (Failed): The name is not activatable

EXPECTED RESULT
KWalletManager 24.08.0 should've started when run from the Application Launcher menu

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 41
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2

Fix service file name

The D-Bus service name should match with the desktop file name to make D-Bus activation work, otherwise the application cannot be launched. The desktop file name was changed in commit 3478852e6600cbea7e87a32e5d11ca859fa59e1f.
