Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Copy some desktop-file to the home folder with
cp /usr/share/
2. Open Caja in home folder
3. Make right mouse click on newly copied firefox.desktop file, ensure that you have two options here - "Open With LibreOffice Writer" and "Open With Other Application"
4. Click on "Open With Other Application", select Pluma in the opened window
5. Repeat step 3 to see Pluma in the list
Expected results:
* desktop-files are now open with Pluma
Actual results:
* Pluma is not shown, "Open With LibreOffice Writer" stays in place
Workaround:
1. Hit Properties, go to Open With tab and repeatedly click on Remove button, then close this window.
2. Visit "Open With Other Application" and type `pluma` in "Use a custom command" and click Add (if does not work - do this twice)
