           Summary: krunner doesn't show all applications
           Product: krunner
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: mail eliasprobst eu


Version:           (SVN rev. 811436) (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

krunner doesn't show all applications while they're shown in kickoff as search result.
The only idea I had what could cause this are the desktop files, but I couldn't see any differences between the working and not-working ones.
I've picked 2 desktop files of each (working/not-working) from /usr/share/applications/:

Working:
#dvdisaster.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=dvdisaster
GenericName=data archival
GenericName[de]=Daten-Archivierung
Comment=Additional error protection for CD/DVD media
Comment[cs]=Přídavná ochrana pro média CD/DVD
Comment[de]=Zusätzliche Fehlerkorrektur für CD/DVD
Exec=dvdisaster
Icon=dvdisaster.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;System;
Encoding=UTF-8

#opera-opera.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Opera
Type=Application
Comment=Opera web browser
Exec=opera
TryExec=opera
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/opera.xpm
Categories=Network;WebBrowser;Email;FileTransfer;IRCClient;


Not working:
#nxclient-nxclient.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=NX Client
Type=Application
Comment=X11/VNC/NXServer client (remote desktops over low-bandwidth links)
Exec=nxclient
TryExec=nxclient
Icon=nxclient-icon
Categories=Network;;
 
#skype-skype.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Skype VoIP
Type=Application
Comment=A P2P-VoiceIP client.
Exec=skype
TryExec=skype
Icon=skype
Categories=Network;InstantMessaging;Telephony;

As the desktop files are all in the same directory (/usr/share/applications) the reason can't be wrong set PATH or another variable.

What could cause this then? And how could it be fixed?
