You forgot bme.desktop [Desktop Entry] _Name=Epiphany Web Bookmarks _GenericName=Web Bookmarks _Comment=Browse and organize your bookmarks Exec=epiphany --bookmarks-editor PS here is a way to reopen a bug?
Reoponed, as Luca said bme.desktop needs to be patched

Tried this a bit and I think we should keep it as is, using only Epiphany as the name is confusing. So I'm proposing my patch as only adding _X-GNOME-FullName. diff --git a/data/bme.desktop.in.in b/data/bme.desktop.in.in index 97572d4..9ead747 100644 --- a/data/bme.desktop.in.in +++ b/data/bme.desktop.in.in @@ -1,6 +1,7 @@ [Desktop Entry] _Name=Epiphany Web Bookmarks _GenericName=Web Bookmarks +_X-GNOME-FullName=Epiphany Web Bookmarks
Diego, the only other GNOME app with similar need is Brasero. It's using "_Name=Brasero" in both brasero-copy-medium.desktop (GN=Disc copier) and brasero.desktop (GN=Disc Burner). However the fist one is hidden in Application menu.
So, any final solution here?
We do not ship BME.desktop anymore.
