I am having this problem on Ubuntu 18.04 -- I manage a batch of desktop machines with some convience desktop launchers, which gnome3 insists are "untrusted". With some general websearching reveals that this is a *GNome3* so-called "security" issue (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/commit/1630f5348). I found a thread on the CentOS Forums (I don't have an account there), where another sysadmin is strugling with this issue:
https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=65864&start=10
If anyone has come up with a script that can be dropped into ~/.config/autostart/ to "fix" this "feature" of gnome3 I would be interested in it.
Hi,
Just chmod +x the desktop files.
That is NOT the problem...
That or teach the users how to do things correctly.
Oh, yeah, you really think I am going to get very far telling *non-techies* to:
Open up a terminal (right-click on the desktop and select "Open Terminal")
Type at the shell prompt (huh? what is a "shell prompt")
/usr/local/bin/arduino &
OR gnucash &
OR
scratch &
These happen to be the three desktop shortcuts I am providing. Yes, the last two can be found by searching through all available applications, if they know what to look for. It is so much easier to say: click on the light blue-green infinity sign for Arduino, click on the pile of money for GnuCash, or click on the scratch cat for scratch.
Hi,
1. Do not jump to caps and shout at me. Not polite and will not get you anywhere.
Ok, go back to a debian based list and learn how to bundle the applications yourself. This way you can supply all the required desktop files. If you cannot do this, get another job.
I would test this on debian stable as I was the author of the backported security patch. However, I am not inclined to do so.
Regards
Phil
