deja-dup-monitor does not have branded icon in System Monitor

[Benjamin Kerensa]

deja-dup does not have unique icon in system monitor (as reported in LP: #900002 which was closed because these should be individual bugs)

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Both deja-dup and deja-dup-preferences show icons in System Monitor for me in Ubuntu 12.04. deja-dup-monitor *does not* show the icon.

Is that the same behavior you see?

+Michael Terry:

I was just doing a bit of cleanup on harvest and broke one bug into individual bugs from #900002 if this is fixed in12.04 it can be marked fixed released or invalid.

So deja-dup-monitor does have a .desktop file that provides this information, but it's only installed into /etc/xdg/autostart. We should probably install a copy or link into /usr/share/applications so that System Monitor can find it.

Icon appears in system monitor in Ubuntu 16.04.

@Diogo.

I still do not see an icon for deja-dup-monitor in system monitor, nor do I have a (linked) deja-dup-monitor.desktop in /usr/share/applications. Do you have such a file?

I use Ubuntu 16.04 with Déjà Dup 34.2-0ubuntu1.

@Vej

I am in Ubuntu Mate now because gpu issues and I can't test this bug in Ubuntu 16.04 anymore.

Sorry

[Vej (vej)]

@Diogo Thanks for letting us know.

I have (the same?) issue. I use Ubuntu 17.04 with the Gnome Shell. I cannot see the icon, when the backup runs.
