I needed to add a launcher for an app in Ubuntu

  • sudo apt-get install –no-install-recommends gnome-panel
  • After installing gnome-panel, use following command to create a launcher.
  • gnome-desktop-item-edit –create-new ~/Desktop
You will then see something similar to the following

Clicking OK will create the launcher
