@Doc73

Description

@Doc73

JabRef version

Other (please describe below)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

Debian GNU/Linux 13 (trixie)

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

JabRef 6.0-tags-v6-0-alpha-5.1--2026-02-20--409d4b2
Linux 6.18.5+deb13-amd64 amd64
Java 25.0.2
JavaFX 25.0.2+4

Not a serious bug, but annoying.

Desktop file in /usr/share/applications point to icon file in /opt/jabref/lib/JabRef.png, but this icon file is not correct, as you can see in this screenshot:
