I looked at the film.

I saw some differences.

If you create the Icon file for GEdit it is a copy of the the *.desktop
file.

If you create the Icon file for LO Writer, it is a symlink to the
*.desktop file.

I tried to reproduce the problem at my Wheezy system with XFCE

For Gedit it works

For Libreoffice it creates a symlink. In the preferences of this icon I
read the message like "defect link" (In Germen: Verknüpfung (fehlerhaft))
