Unity7: Application appear twice in the dash home page

[Dave Morley]

I'm porting the commercial apps from Raring to Saucy and noticed apps were appearing twice in the home dash.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Software center
2. Click on the small arrow next to all software and select "for purchase"
3. Install a 0$ app from that section
4. Wait for the app to install
5. Launch the application
6. Close the application
7. Remove the application from the launcher
8. Open the dash note the app appears twice in the home page

The issue here seems to be that unpinning an app pushes a zeitgeist event with application scheme and full path to the desktop file. If a desktop file is present in the standard XDG directories, the full path should be omitted and only desktop id (as per fdo menu spec) should be used - ie instead of "application:///usr/share/applications/foo/bar.desktop", "application://foo-bar.desktop" should be used. This will ensure that the event is correctly grouped with all the other events that we get from elsewhere about the application.

This should be fixed by using swcenter trunk... It should have hit the distro sooner, though...

I've just tried this, but I can't reproduce the issue... Looking at the zeitgeist events emitted, they're fine unless the new app desktop file is well defined (i.e. the final desktop-id matches the temporary one).
