Wire-desktop: Two .desktop icons

Created on 9 Apr 2017  路  6Comments  路  Source: wireapp/wire-desktop

At first start, I chose to create a .desktop file, but when Wire is running, a second icon is appearing in my dock (Fedora 25, Gnome 3.22.2, Wayland). The first one is the static favorite one I use for starting the program, the second one is tied to the actual program (the first one isn't). How can I connect the two, so that the static favorite gets it's dot/underline for visualizing that the program is running?

I fixed this by adding StartupWMClass=Wire to /usr/share/applications/wire-desktop.desktop

I'd made a PR, but I haven't found the correct file. O_o
One further thing: The .desktop file states Icon=appimagekit-wire-desktop, whereas the icon actually is just appimagekit-wire. Please correct this!

Is the icon also fixed in the meantime?

Unfortunately this seems not to be an easy fix. Changing the icon for AppImage name, will change the name for the deb package too.

O_o
