Rename gcalctool.desktop back to gnome-calculator.desktop (2.07 KB, patch)

Description Jeremy Bicha 2013-03-07 18:39:11 UTC 
We should rename the calculator .desktop back to the 6.6 (GNOME 3.6) filename so that we don't break things for users who have "favorited" this app. This isn't just a GNOME Shell problem as the GNOME Calculator is widely used on Unity, XFCE, and the other GNOME spinoffs.

This would also break users who have added a Calculator shortcut to their desktop or set a custom global keybinding to launch the Calculator (Super+C perhaps).

I would like to request a Freeze Break so that we can fix this before we release GNOME 3.8.

We don't have a good way of handling migrating user settings for
a change like this, so let's revert for now.

Approved as long as you get the break.
