From b50de9987078b9e79f211d019b7b2dfb05989d5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Smit Barmase Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 21:15:46 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] linux: Fix desktop entry pointing to wrong binary in manual install docs (#49109) Follow-up to #21137 The manual install instructions in `linux.md` set `Exec=` to `libexec/zed-editor` (main binary) instead of `bin/zed` (cli). Using `zed-editor` directly throws "zed is already running" error and files won't open from the file explorer. The "Open a new workspace" right-click option on the desktop entry also doesn't work correctly.
