What does desktop_Icon mean?
In the .desktop file entry, there’s the line which starts with “Icon=”. This part is especially important as it will show the icon of your app, which will distinguish it from other entries.
When providing the icon file name, make sure you:
- Use no absolute paths (ie. /usr/share/icons/…)
- Use an icon which you actually ship in your app
- Specify the 'Icon=' key in the .desktop file
- Put the icon in the root of your project (i.e. Icon=./icon.png)
