Created attachment 1086981 [details] example desktop file The ipython notebook IDE/shell should ship with a desktop file so that it becomes easily installable, discoverable and launchable from the desktop session. What the package needs is: a) .desktop file b) application icon c) appstream data file (http://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/) I added a .desktop file I made that works for me. That said it does leave a ipython process each time you run it, so I don't know if the package has some kind of automatic close on idle functionality that can be added.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This applies also to python3-ipython-gui, it should have a graphical entry of some kind too.

The never happening shutdown is a blocker for this. Maybe if we start the app with Terminal=true and let the user end it form there? But that's not so user friendly.

Can we close this then?
(In reply to Petr Viktorin from comment #6) > Can we close this then? Nope, this is not fixed for python-notebook. I guess I'll start with the terminal=True option and we can improve later. Also, packaging https://github.com/takluyver/nbopen might be a good idea.
Setting this to low priority. It would be great if someone else would get to this earlier than we can. If that's your case, please assign the bug to yourself (and adjust priority accordingly).
Side note: htop is a console app and it has a desktop file. You can check /usr/share/applications/htop.desktop from the htop package as an example. Jupyter Notebook is not a console app per se, but the solution in comment #7: > I guess I'll start with the terminal=True option and we can improve later. is to treat it as such.
