Thread: Gnome-calculator launcher icon not visible

-

i found out 1 funny issue.
use gnome-shell desktop environment gnome3 ppa , gnome3 staging ppa enabled.
gnome-calculator not visible in gnome-shell menu, there no such icon.
according file /usr/share/applications/gcalctool.desktop should found "accessories - calculator".

then, noticed name of launcher icon file: gcalctool.desktop.
should gnome-calculator.desktop.

well, changed file name gnome-calculator , became visible in menu.

ps. note have removed transitional package gcalctool, leaving gnome-calculator left.
also, have found out if gnome3 , gnome3 staging ppa:s purged icon visible in menu , there no issues.
