Alacritty remains in app menu after removal
System details
Omarch 3.2.0
What's wrong?
After moving to Ghostty, I uninstalled Alacritty using the "Remove > Package" function. However, the app still shows up on the list, just with a weird icon, even after rebooting:
This seems to have been reported multiple times before: https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/issues/2115, https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/issues/850.
The suggestion mentioned in https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/issues/850 worked for me:
❯ find /usr/share/applications ~/.local/share/applications -name "*Alacritty*"
❯ rm /home/danielm/.local/share/applications/Alacritty.desktop
In that second ticket it is mentioned that this is not a Omarchy bug, but a problem with the app's uninstall process. Nevertheless, if default Omarchy apps can't be correctly uninstalled with the recommended removal mechanism, I believe this is something Omarchy should fix.
I had the same issue!
I tried reinstalling Alacritty and then uninstalling it, but after rebooting it comes back. it's work for me too the command, @inad9300 thx!
I also had the issue, came here after a quick search. Deleted the .desktop file via file manager to resolve.
This worked for me
rm ~/.local/share/applications/Alacritty.desktop
