Double Eclipse Icon

Question

I have a little problem when i'm installing eclipse on my elementaryOS. In fact, this problem persists when i'm using ubuntu gnome or unity.

I have eclipse on my home folder, and I create a eclipse.desktop. The icon looks good, but when I open eclipse, another blurry icon appears (Its name is "Java - Eclipse") apart of the normal icon.

I want have only the normal icon. I read about some similar troubles with the google chrome icon but the threads can't help me.

Can anyone helps me?

Thanks in advance.

My desktop entry is on /usr/share/applications/eclipse.desktop

Answer 1

That's normal behavior for eclipse.exe. The icon you have on your desktop is the eclipse launcher, which is not the same as the actual eclipse IDE.
