desktop: one name across all three install channels (issue 2075)
The app answered to three different names depending on how it arrived, and the
part that actually hurt was WM_CLASS. Reading tauri-bundler settles what it is:
the generated .desktop template writes StartupWMClass={{exec}} where exec is
main_binary_name, and tao creates its GtkApplication with a NULL app id
(enableGTKAppId defaults off), so GTK falls back to the program name. WM_CLASS
is the binary name, nothing else.
Which inverts this issue's premise. The rename could not break grouping,
because two channels weren't grouping in the first place: pacman ships
/usr/bin/thoughtsync and the AppImage's AppRun execs thoughtsync-desktop, while
all three hand-written entries hardcoded StartupWMClass=ThoughtSync — a string
no binary in any channel has ever reported. Only the .deb worked, and only
because Tauri generates its entry from the binary and never consulted us.
So: thoughtsync everywhere, carried by the build target itself via Cargo [[bin]]
plus mainBinaryName rather than by the install path, since the target name is
what the desktop reads. The pacman package sheds its -desktop suffix and
declares conflict+replaces so an upgrade retires the old one instead of landing
beside it and fighting over /usr/bin/thoughtsync.
The .deb verifier now asserts binary path, Exec and StartupWMClass all agree,
which is the part that keeps this fixed: the .deb's entry is the one no human
writes, so it's the one that drifts silently.
Package: thought-sync stays. tauri-bundler derives it as kebab-case(productName)
with no override, and rewriting a control archive on every build is a poor trade
for one uninstall command.
