Example desktop shortcut which stopped working

I have just updated KDE (some components are 5.9.1, some are 16.12.2) and every single shortcut I have in ~/Desktop stopped working - they don't launch the applications with parameters anymore, they just open in Kate instead. Example shortcut in the attachments (it used to work correctly just two days ago).

Note: it might have been caused by wrong ebuilds - after today's updates the problem does not exists anymore...

There has been a bug that caused it to unconditionally use your default settings for running scripts also on the desktop. This has been fixed in Plasma 5.9.2, please update.

(Try unchecking the "when running scripts or desktop files" in Dolphin settings → General → Confirmation)
