Description Mike Bryce 2024-06-21 05:22:17 UTC
The vscodium window has the wrong desktopName value set, so the taskbar shows the generic wayland icon.

This apparently happens because of the following lines in the package's build/gulpfile.vscode.js file:

// for linux url handling
if (platform === 'linux') {
    packageJsonUpdates.desktopName = `${product.applicationName}-url-handler.desktop`;
}

That creates the package.json file that is installed at /opt/vscodium/resources/app/package.json with the incorrect desktopName entry.

If I manually edit this entry to match the name of the .desktop file, the icon shows correctly.
