Description

When renaming the bottle or the program we search .desktop files for their respective Exec= entry and rename the file as well as its content accordingly to the new name combination.

Fixes #3970

Type of change

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
  • This change requires a documentation update

How Has This Been Tested?

Create a desktop entry for a program (shortcut) inside a bottle and then rename the bottle (Settings) and / or the program (burger menu besides the program name).

The two files, inside .local/share/applications as well as in ~/Desktop are being renamed and the shortcut in the Desktop is being renamed as well (the .desktop file and its content is changed).
