    .xsession-errors -- .desktop files have Type Application but no Exec line

    I was looking through my Kubuntu 18.04 .xsession-errors file and saw
    Code:
    kf5.kservice.services: The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/org.kde.drkonqi.desktop" has Type= "Application" but no Exec line
    kf5.kservice.sycoca: Invalid Service :  "/usr/share/applications/org.kde.drkonqi.desktop"
    kf5.kservice.services: The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/org.kde.systemmonitor.desktop" has Type= "Application" but no Exec line
    kf5.kservice.sycoca: Invalid Service :  "/usr/share/applications/org.kde.systemmonitor.desktop"
    drkonqi: cleaned up "Names"
    Code:
    # KDE Config File
    [Desktop Entry]
    Type=Application
    Name=Dr Konqi
    ...
    Icon=tools-report-bug
    NoDisplay=true
    systemmonitor also cleaned up
    Code:
    # KDE Config File
    [Desktop Entry]
    Type=Application
    Name=System Monitor
    ...
    Icon=utilities-system-monitor
    NoDisplay=true
    I don't know what Dr Konqi does, but KSysGuard (System Monitor) launches properly from the toolbar.

    My .xsession-errors file has those errors too. I agree (if it makes any sense to) with kf5.kservice.services about those desktop files, they should have an "Exec" line.

    Dr Konqi is or was involved in crash reporting.

    KSysGuard is started by /usr/share/applications/org.kde.ksysguard.desktop (or if you've modified the item with the menu editor, ~/.local/share/applications/org.kde.ksysguard.desktop), so I don't know what the "systemmonitor.desktop" file relates to.

    I think it's some some messy cruft that no-one has bothered to clean up yet. I can't offer a useful opinion on whether reporting this would be worthwhile for anyone.
