Description (last modified by ppurka) (diff)

here is how to reproduce this bug:

  1. Start with a fresh account or move ~/.local directory away.
  2. Go to Settings -> Settings Panel -> Apps -> New Application
  3. Add a new application, say "myxterm" and "xterm" and click "Apply"
  4. Note that no ~/.local/share/applications directory is present and it is not created either. No error is given.
  5. Create the full directory hierarchy ~/.local/share/applications (partial directory hierarchy does not work either) and now click on "Apply" in the New application.
  6. Now it works and creates the new app.

PS: I am not sure if it is a problem in enlightenment or efreet. Please change the component accordingly.
