Bug Description

* Impact
Some items are duplicated in the notifications panel of gnome-control-center

* Test case
- open gnome-control-center
- select the notifications panel
- look if archive manager and files are duplicated in the list

* Regression potential
- check that no item is missing in the list and that the file and archive manager control are working

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

I can see duplicates of 'Archive Manager' and 'Files' in the Notifications panel in the new g-c-c 3.25.x. See the attached screenshot.

Right, that's due to the compatibility .desktop we provide and the panel not filtering out the NoDisplay elements

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-control-center - 1:3.26.1-0ubuntu4

---------------
gnome-control-center (1:3.26.1-0ubuntu4) artful; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/ubuntu-legacy-notifications.patch:
    - Ubuntu ships compatibility names for .desktop that got renamed
      upstream, those use NoDisplay but the panel doesn't respect that key,
      skip known buggy entries for file-roller and nautilus (lp: #1716267)

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * debian/patches/ubuntu-white-lists.patch:
    - use white background for list as expected, clearer that way.
