Description Florian Boor (reporter) 2009-12-27 23:35:23 UTC

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
(Explain in detail what you do (e.g. tap on OK) and what you see (e.g. message
Connection Failed appears))
1. Create a shortcut for an application on the desktop
2. Upgrade packages 


EXPECTED OUTCOME:
Updating an application to which we have a shortcut on the desktop should not
have any (visible) impact on the shortcut.

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
The desktop shortcuts disappear.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
This happened for all application (all third party) I had shortcuts for (e.g.
Conboy, FBReader iirc.)

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:

OTHER COMMENTS:
I'll try to reproduce with the 5+ version.

Can't reproduce this with PR1.1 any more. Tested with several apps - seems to
be fixed.
