Bug Description
I have the following backup.desktop file on my removable HDD
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Start Backup
Exec=bash -c '%k/.backup.
OnlyShowIn=
Icon=lxterminal
Terminal=true
X-KeepTerminal=true
StartupNotify=true
as it says here: http://
%k The location of the desktop file as either a URI (if for example gotten from the vfolder system) or a local filename or empty if no location is known.
doubleclicking it in PcmanFM acts as its expected - it opens lxterminal and runs .backup.sh
while the same in Thunar returns:
bash: /media/
error happens in %k as it should return just path to some.desktop file instead it returns path+some.desktop in Thunar.

Thanks for reporting this problem! I was able to replicate this bug in Thunar 1.6.10, as well as in Nautilus 3.14.2, but PCManFM does not have this problem, as said in the report.
