I have 2 versions of Eclipse downloaded on my 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04. I use both for different purposes, so they have different plugins etc.
How do i lock both to the launcher(the vertical bar on the left side of the screen with icons )? I have locked one, but when i open the other eclipse from Nautilus, it gets associated with the same launcher icon. So i cannot lock this second Eclipse to the launcher.
Why can't the launcher recognize that they are two different applications? Is there a workaround for this? I just want to be able to open both versions of Eclipse using different icons in the launcher.
.local/share/applications/
usingalacarte
and it works fine. But the problem of the two applications being associated with the same launcher icon persists. – faizal Jul 07 '14 at 09:52eclipse.png

. Both Eclipse versions seem to be taking this as the launcher icon, even though i have specified a different one in the .desktop file. If i remove this .png file and then try to run Eclipse, the launcher icon is just a big "?". – faizal Jul 07 '14 at 10:50
