Hi,
Today I noticed something strange. There seem to be a series of duplicate desktop menu entries in /usr/share/applications.
Example: gedit.desktop and org.gnome.gedit.desktop
Other example: nautilus.desktop and org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
This is annoying, since I usually edit some custom menu entries for my users. Now, if I edit both files for a single application, I end up with duplicate menu entries.
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Niki

Do the duplicate entries contain the same 'Exec=' line?

After some experimenting, I found a solution.
I just edited the org.gnome.something.desktop files and then put a single NoDisplay=true option in the corresponding something.desktop file. Works perfectly.
