Deja-dup icon is missing only runs from terminal

[Keith Drummond]

This is occuring just on Ubuntu 20.04 Beta for me.

The Deja-Dup icon has gone missing from the application's menu. Searching for it does not yield any results via the gnome shell search.

It will run if I open a terminal and type "deja-dup"

While running from the terminal instead of the description in the top bar/panel being the expected "Backups" the description now reads "Org.gnome.DejaDup"

All other functionality seems to work as normal when run from terminal.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling via synaptic and the Ubuntu Software but the issue is persisting.

Hello Keith,

Déjà Dup has been moved to a "submenu" called helper programs or the like (I only have a translated version available so I am not sure about the exact name here). Try searching for "Backup" that should bring the icon up.

Please tell us if this fixes the issue or not.

I think the English word used is Utilities
