Bug Description
On utopic-proposed (r62) I installed a click app and tried running it with qmlscene from the command line passing it its own desktop file.
phablet@
QUbuntu: Could not create application instance
Aborted (core dumped)
Passing another preinstalled desktop app lets it run though
qmlscene --desktop_
Copying either of the desktop files to /home/phablet/
It looks like the name of the file matters not its path.
summary: |
- Running qmlscene from the command line crashes + unity-mir rejects apps with .desktop files in custom locations |

This worked on the trusty 302 image on the nexus 4, tested earlier today, before the utopic upgrade.
