Bug Description
Is this normal behaviour for Plank to remove icons after updating the system?
Yesterday Firefox, Chromium and Libre-office got updates and during the updating process those 3 icons were removed.
I had to put them back in place manually.
I'm running this on Arch, Xfce.

There's a thread of Manjaro linux users who have the same problem:

What's suspected is that when applications are upgraded, the shortcut is removed and added again in a way that Plank only thinks that a removal has occurred. The best known workaround is to create a copy of the launchers, or to re-add the affected applications to the dock after update.

Is the above commit in the version? I still experience this bug and it's a pain in the ass. Ubuntu 18.04.

I see this commit mentioned above "Increase delay for auto-removal of broken/unavailable applications to 1 min" is included in the latest release (0.11.89).
I still notice this annoying behaviour in Xubuntu LTS 20.04 with package 0.11.89.
Happens when an upgrade happens via snapd or apt.
Package: plank
Version: 0.11.89-1

This is still an issue with updated snaps occurring on Ubuntu MATE 20.04 and 20.10 running plank 11.89-1.

I've only experienced this with apps updated via snapd. Every time a new version of IntelliJ IDEA is released, the icon disappears from my Dock. Apps installed via apt or flatpak have been unaffected so far.
