@ma If I remember correctly, it´s something like:
deleting the .desktop files in /share/applications
Maybe something in .cache also, but I can be wrong.. -
I had already searched in these directories. However, no corresponding files (.desktop) were created here. This is probably because it is a pure commandline program.
-
@ma Hello! The folder you are searching for is probably ~/.local/share/applications. It is a hidden folder so you need to enable "Show hidden files" in the file manager and unlock using the password or you can do it in the terminal.

I have searched in the correct directory. But there is no corresponding file.
-
@ma did you install the program in the root filesystem or in a Libertine container?
-
In the root filesystem (sudo apt-get install ...).
-
@ma Uninstalling that program didn't remove the icon? Try refreshing the app drawer by swiping down and release. If all things fail, check at
/usr/share/applications -
It's a pure commandline program, which I want to use. So I didn't tried to uninstall it. I'm wondering, why an icon was installed.
-
@ma how about you mention the program so we can reproduce the issue and maybe find where the .desktop file is hiding out.
-
I have already searched all directories with "find" and found no .desktop file.
Installation: sudo apt-get install imagemagick imagemagick-doc

@ma This functionless icon appeared after you installed a program via the terminal, why not remove that program and check if the icon goes as well? or rerun your device through the installer, do not tick the wipe option and see if the icon goes. You will have to reinstall the program and the icon will reappear no doubt which will prove it is linked to the program (as we already know). It will be hard to solve the issue without you stating which programme you installed or what terminal commands you used. Or even a screen shot of the icon might give a clue.
-
I've installed the program ImageMagick.
Command: sudo apt-get install imagemagick imagemagick-doc
Interestingly, the icon appears twice. After deleting the program one icon disappeared. Because I want to use the program, I leave it at that.
-
@ma one of the icons most probably comes from having I stalled.the program in a libertine container as well.
