[Bug 803729] Re: "NoDisplay=true" in gdebi.desktop makes setting gdebi as default difficult

[Doug McMahon]

Really a minor issue, thought i'd re-open just in case there is a rebuild or for 12/10
The only way .desktops will show up in nautilus' right click > properties  > open with lists is if the Exec= line in the app's .desktop ends with a %something
Not sure if %f is appropriate but seemed ok here

Ex.
Exec=gdebi-gtk %f

** Changed in: gdebi (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => New

** Summary changed:

- "NoDisplay=true" in gdebi.desktop makes setting gdebi as default difficult
+ No %<something in gdebi.desktop's Exec= line makes setting gdebi as default difficult

Title:
  No %<something in gdebi.desktop's Exec= line makes setting gdebi as
  default difficult

Status in “gdebi” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  With that line included gdebi will not be available from the right click > properties menu
  Users can only set gdebi as default by either editing/removing the line in gdebi.desktop or adding a line in  - 
  ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list in the [Default Applications] section
  Shouldn't be that way...
