Sorry, but this patch is the wrong approach. The point with the cache is that several processes will share the cache, so one process can't rewrite it.
Processes must monitor for changes and then run efreet_desktop_cache_create. This process will create a new cache which processes then can reload.
Working on it ATM.

I agree it maybe wrong approach. But point of that patch was simple,now whenever somebody create new application desktop file from inside e17 it will never appear in list of available applications, you need fully rebuild cache.The same will happen if new application was installed or removed or even if u changed some properties with eapp editor. I wrote it just to make e17 more usable for me.
