Description chrysn 2012-04-10 20:34:38 UTC 
web application .desktop files (as generated by epiphany versions 3.2 through 3.4.0.1) contain a line StartupNotification=true. according to the desktop file spec[1], it should be StartupNotify.

implementations silently accept the unknown value, so i assume the notifications just won't work (i don't have such notifications in my setup, so i can't test it). desktop-file-validate complains:

error: file contains key "StartupNotification" in group "Desktop Entry", but keys extending the format should start with "X-"
