Bug Description

Actually the name of application is displayed as "FM-Radio Tuner" :)
See screenshot

As discussed in various places we shouldn't use the generic name in the name
field in the desktop files:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2009-August/msg00117.html

We should also have consistency between the Name field, the name used in the
titlebar, the name used in the application menu (gnome-shell), the
about box, and the documentation.

GNOME Goal: Correct Desktop Files https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/CorrectDesktopFiles

Can we change the name in the desktop file to reflect this?

current gnomeradio desktop file:

-----------------------------------------

[Desktop Entry]
Name=FM-Radio Tuner
Comment=Listen to FM-radio
Exec=gnomeradio
Icon=gnomeradio
Categories=AudioVideo;Audio;Tuner
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Type=Application
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOME
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=gnomeradio
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=general
X-GNOME-DocPath=gnomeradio/gnomeradio.xml
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=gnomeradio

------------------------------------------

Any suggestion to change this would be welcome

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks, but it seems that the substitution isn't working correctly; see:

laney@raring> dpkg --fsys-tarfile gnomeradio_1.8-2ubuntu10_amd64.deb | tar x -O --wildcards \*gnomeradio.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
[…]

Setting to Incomplete - please reset once this is fixed.
