| Summary | 0000509: Bug in xdg-icon-resource from xdg-utils 1.2.0-3.el10 | ||||
| Description | A bug that was fixed upstream over a year ago is present in xdg-utils 1.2.0-3.el10: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/-/commit/af2fe0d1dcbcd982d84ddf2bbd174afe90976ed9 This bug prevents Google Chrome (and probably other applications) from installing the desktop icons during installation via rpm, the applications is installed correctly and is functionnal, but has no custom desktop icon (a blue icon with gears appears instead of the regular Chrome icon). The bug appears on line 981 of /usr/bin/xdg-icon-resource. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | On an Almalinux 10 system installed as a Graphical Workstation where Chrome has never been installed before, grab the rpm from https://www.google.com/chrome/?platform=linux then install with the usual command: sudo dnf install ./google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm During the installation, multiple lines like this one will appear: /bin/xdg-icon-resource: line 1076: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``' The installation completes successfully despite the errors, but the Chrome icons are not installed. | ||||
| Additional Information | On Fedora 41/42, version 1.2.1 of xdg-utils no longer has this bug. Previous versions of Almalinux use older versions of xdg-utils that also do not have this bug. | ||||
