Description Vít Ondruch 2016-11-24 10:03:05 UTC

Description of problem:
It seems that Vim 8.0 ships its own desktop file, so now I have installed:

```
$ ls /usr/share/applications/ | grep vim
gvim.desktop
vim.desktop
```

The downside of this is that I have actually "Vim" and "Vi IMproved" menu entries, but most importantly, Vim in new terminal window is opened whenever I want to open some text file. This is extremely annoying.

Please drop the duplicated desktop files and open gvim by default.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -q vim-X11
vim-X11-8.0.094-1.fc26.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Duplicated menu entries, Vim in new terminal window is used to open files.


Expected results:
Only one VIM menu entry. GVim is used to open files.


Additional info:
This behavior is very annoying e.g. when you try to open some .c file from browser, but new terminal pops up instead of gvim.

Hi Víťa,

thanks for reporting, I removed that desktop file - you can check it on scratch build http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16594891 .

Comment 2 Vít Ondruch 2016-11-25 16:43:45 UTC

Thx that works for me.

Nevertheless, I am not sure about the implementation ... Wouldn't be actually better to use the upstream .desktop file and just s/vim/gvim/ ?

1. The upstream desktop file appears to have more translations (but I have not checked the remaining differences) and you could drop the source file you ship ...
2. There are now some build artefacts such as:

```
cp: cannot stat '../runtime/vim.desktop': No such file or directory
```
