icons.screen0.rc only allows full desktop-file-path

Description

Hello,

I just came across this ...

${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/xfce4/desktop/icons.screen0.rc is ignored, if section name is no path to desktop-file but its icon-name.

Using the icon-name defined in the desktop-file is working fine if icons.screen0.rc is located in ${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS}/xfce4/desktop/

This might be, because I have to redefine the path to "Desktop" directory in the file $XDG_PROFILE_DIR/user-dirs.dirs with the content: XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/.local/xdg_profiles/vis/Desktop"

XFCE4 might not search in that place to resolve the icon-name, even though the icons are shown on the desktop (but unordered).

Bye, Jens Henrik

Example:

This is working fine:

[/homeb/zam/goebbert/.local/xdg_profiles/vis/Desktop/vis-VisIt.desktop]
row=2
col=4

This is ignored:

[VisIt]
row=2
col=4

with this vis-VisIt.desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=VisIt
Comment=
Exec=bash -c 'export TERM=xterm && module --force purge && module use /usr/local/software/jureca/OtherStages && module load Stages/2016a && module load Intel && module load IntelMPI && module load VisIt && vglrun visit -hw-accel'
Icon=/usr/local/jsc/etc/xdg/profiles/vis/data/icons/visit_90x35.png
