[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

I'm using GuixSD v0.10.0 with GNOME.  In a fresh install using an
un-modified desktop.scm from the installation image, in GNOME, under the
"Search" settings, there are four entries.  The first two are both named
"Files" and use an identical file cabinet icon.  The second two are both
named "Web" and use an identical web browser icon.  All entries are set
to "on".  I'm not sure why there are duplicate entries; at first blush,
it looks like a misconfiguration.

Is this expected?  It isn't a problem as far as I can tell, but it's a
little odd.

I notice the same issue.  I believe I am using Gnome on X.  I have a Macbook 7,1.    

guix —version

0.12.0

Indeed, the problem is still present (using desktop.tmpl in current
master, v0.12.0-3107-g87e321017).  Screenshot attached.

My guess is that this is because ‘nautilus-search-provider.ini’ (for
“Files”) appears twice in ‘XDG_DATA_DIRS’.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
