Bug Description
Using 0.3.2-0ubuntu1~ppa5 on Intrepid
The .desktop file created by AWN in the ~/.config/autostart folder when checking the autostart option in the preferences dialog is not a complete desktop entry. It lacks the comment field and l10n capabilities, which causes the entry to be shown untranslated and with a "No description" comment in System > Preferences > Sessions.
This comes from awnPreferences.py:
if not os.path.
# create the autostart entry
I do not know which is the usual way of doing this, but having had a look at the conduit sources as an example, I see they copy the application's main desktop entry to the ~/.config/autostart folder when activating the autostart options, which allows for reusing the translations and all other fields.
