Description of problem: I'm using gnome on wayland and the icons from Libreoffice (Writer, Calc, etc.) are missing from dock and Alt+Tab. Its just a "Missing icon" with "soffice" as description. I did a fresh install from fedora-alpha and dnf update since there. >rpm -qa | grep libreoffice libreoffice-graphicfilter-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-emailmerge-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.noarch libreoffice-langpack-pt-BR-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-ure-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-writer-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-filters-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-gtk3-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-pyuno-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-pdfimport-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreofficekit-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-calc-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-draw-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-xsltfilter-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-x11-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-math-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-core-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-ogltrans-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-data-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.noarch libreoffice-langpack-en-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-base-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64 libreoffice-impress-5.1.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64
I think this is related to the hack we have under X where one window can change from being a writer window to the empty starter window to a calc window etc. There isn't an existing desktop-independent way to achieve that.
This is still broken on Fedora 25 GA released today. The Document Foundation bug doesn't seem to have any activity. Is there anything that can be done?
After upgrading to Fedora 25 I have this issue as well. In Fedora 24 I still had the icon.
I also have this issue. The icons return when using the xorg session.

Another issue of this kind is that LibreOffice icons aren't retained in the frequently used applications list under Gnome. I imagine this is related to the rest. (Hardly a critical issue for me, just another detail.)

Okular is also having same problem.
(In reply to RudraB from comment #9) > Okular is also having same problem. That should be a separate bug report, I think. I see Okular also doesn't appear under "frequently used applications" in Wayland, but the original issues noted in this bug report don't apply.
I am experiencing this same bug under Wayland in Fedora 25. Also, Libreoffice icons aren't retained in Gnome's frequently used applications as David H. Gutteridge described. I've logged into an Xorg session, and the icons appear in the Dock and alt-tab as normal. Also, Libreoffice icons appear in the frequently used applications again. $ uname -sr Linux 4.9.4-201.fc25.x86_64 $ rpm -qa | grep libreoffice libreoffice-langpack-en-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-writer-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.noarch libreoffice-pdfimport-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-xsltfilter-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-data-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.noarch libreoffice-ure-common-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.noarch libreoffice-graphicfilter-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-filters-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-core-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-calc-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreofficekit-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-impress-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-x11-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-ure-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-draw-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-emailmerge-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-math-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-gtk2-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-gtk3-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-ogltrans-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 libreoffice-pyuno-5.2.4.2-3.fc25.x86_64 $ rpm -qa | grep wayland ibus-wayland-1.5.14-5.fc25.x86_64 gnome-session-wayland-session-3.22.2-3.fc25.x86_64 mesa-libwayland-egl-13.0.3-1.fc25.x86_64 libwayland-server-1.12.0-1.fc25.x86_64 libwayland-client-1.12.0-1.fc25.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-1.19.1-2.fc25.x86_64 libwayland-cursor-1.12.0-1.fc25.x86_64
I followed some advice elsewhere to do with getting LibreOffice looking good under Wayland on F25 with a HiDPI display. In the /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-*.desktop files I changed the Exec line to set an environment variable to use gtk rather than gtk3 (env SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk). For instance: Exec=env SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk libreoffice --calc %U. This did help with scaling, but also brought the icons back in Gnome when alt-tabbing, thus grouping windows together. It has also allowed LibreOffice to get back into the frequently used application list. This works without having to log into an XOrg session. $ uname -sr Linux 4.9.5-200.fc25.x86_64 LibreOffice and Wayland versions appear to be as above. I'm just adding this as it might help someone to track down the cause, as it is working in Wayland (or at least Xwayland) but not gtk3.

For anyone who uses Writer a lot (I currently have about a half-dozen Writer windows open) this is super-irritating (and of course an irritating regression from F24). I'd suggest "medium" is a more accurate priority than low.
regression in meaningless in the sense that it has never property worked under wayland because we reuse the same window when switching from start center to random application to start center again.
From a user perspective, it worked in a reasonably stock F24 install and doesn't work in a reasonably stock F25 install. So I'm pretty comfortable calling it a regression.
Same problem here

Looks like I'm not going to get an api in gtk in any reasonably short term that would allow us to change windows applications ids to make this work the way it does under X, so I'll just try and bodge things to set a uniform fallback to the startcenter so at least there's some reasonable icon.

What is a reason to close the ticket? I think the delivered solution is more like a workaround but could not be a final resolution because the original behavior (observed in X session) is not restored yet.
Its not possible with the apis gtk3 gives me to do it, there's a patch submitted upstream to gtk to support it without much interest in the problem. Reopening here will just lead to closed upstream, I have to pick battles I can win.
Just out of curiosity, it would be good to link to the upstream GTK bug report (maybe in the "URL" field above?)
