Description Orion Poplawski 2011-04-19 15:37:12 UTC
Description of problem:

It appears that a number of media players are adding the following entries to their .desktop files:

X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=Play;Pause;Stop;Previous;Next;

[Play Shortcut Group] 
Name=Play
Exec=clementine --play 
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Pause Shortcut Group] 
Name=Pause
Exec=clementine --pause
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Stop Shortcut Group] 
Name=Stop
Exec=clementine --stop
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Previous Shortcut Group] 
Name=Previous
Exec=clementine --previous
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Next Shortcut Group] 
Name=Next
Exec=clementine --next
TargetEnvironment=Unity

Which result in the following errors:

/data/sw/tmp/clementine.desktop: error: file contains group "Play Shortcut Group", but groups extending the format should start with "X-"
/data/sw/tmp/clementine.desktop: error: file contains group "Pause Shortcut Group", but groups extending the format should start with "X-"
/data/sw/tmp/clementine.desktop: error: file contains group "Stop Shortcut Group", but groups extending the format should start with "X-"
/data/sw/tmp/clementine.desktop: error: file contains group "Previous Shortcut Group", but groups extending the format should start with "X-"
/data/sw/tmp/clementine.desktop: error: file contains group "Next Shortcut Group", but groups extending the format should start with "X-"

Now, I have no idea if this is an accepted standard or not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
desktop-file-utils-0.16-1.fc14.i686

Comment 1 Christoph Wickert 2011-08-06 06:49:13 UTC
Kind of an upstream bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/789867

Neither GNOME nor Unity developers seem to care about xdg standards any longer. Sad but true.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 15:35:28 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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 to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

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.

The process we are following is described here:
