Can only load appimage from within bauh. Not from DE Application Launcher

[Lennox84]

Before opening a new issue
Install the staging branch and check if the unexpected behavior is happening there as well.
If you are on ArchLinux-based distro, you can install it through AUR (bauh-staging). Otherwise, you have
to clone the repository and install it with pip:

git clone https://github.com/vinifmor/bauh.git -b staging --depth=1
cd bauh
python3 -m venv venv
venv/bin/pip install pip --upgrade
venv/bin/pip install setuptools --upgrade
venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
venv/bin/pip install .
venv/bin/bauh  # or venv/bin/bauh-tray

Describe the bug
Appimage will install fine but it seems and cant be found in application launcher i.e. for etcher it reports "Could not find the program 'AppRun' & for GameHub 'com.github.tkashkin.gamehub'

Software Environment
bauh version: 0.9.10
O.S: name and version Fedora 33 (KDE Spin) 5.9.12-200.fc33.x86_64
Python version: Python 3.9.0
Installation method: pip | distro package manager (e.g: pacman)
Manual- Env

P.S: these instructions and the template must be respected, otherwise your issue will be closed.

Hi @Lennox84 , thanks for sharing this issue. I'm going to have a look here. It can be a regression.

[vinifmor]

This issue is happening because now bauh respects the Exec command defined in the original desktop entry of the AppImage.
RPCS3 does not face this issue. Anyway, I'm going to add a solution for such cases to not harm the overall experience. Thanks again for the quick feedback.

[Lennox84]

Not a problem. Glad you could discover the issue so quickly. Amazing work as always Vin 💪

Thanks @Lennox84 . Issue already fixed. Please, try the staging branch again, and let me know if it is working now.

P.S: you need to reinstall these AppImages so bauh can regenerate the desktop entries.

[Lennox84]

Legend! Thanks. I'll try it out later today and get back to you here 🤙🤙

Hi Vin,

Really sorry to be such a noob but now that I'm in Fedora and not Manjaro... How do I try the staging branch? Pip will install master no?

I'm following the Manual install instructions you have.
Cheers for your help

Great! I'll let this issue open for now until the final release is ready (so people can check if the problem is already reported).

Cheers
