This is an issue on your end. I just installed it on my machine and it starts from my application launcher (rofi). I'm running i3wm, but I doubt it has anything to do with the window manager.

This isn't an issue on his end. Dbeaver doesn't provide a .desktop file therefore no desktop entry in any Application launcher.

I take an educated guess and assume that your rofi is configured to just pick binaries in `$PATH` instead of `.desktop` files in `$XDG_DATA_DIRS`.

Comment:
It looks like the desktop entry should be generated by Maven. I'm not familiar with how this works, but it looks like the configuration comes from [here](https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/blob/devel/product/community/DBeaver.product).

On my system I found an entry `~/.local/share/applications/_usr_lib_dbeaver_.desktop` containing:

```
[Desktop Entry]
Name=DBeaver
Exec=/usr/lib/dbeaver/dbeaver %u
NoDisplay=true
Type=Application
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/eclipse+command;
```

I don't know where the `NoDisplay=true` comes from.

Any suggestions how to handle this? I also see in DBeaver's issue queue they've had problems with packaging the desktop entry multiple times.

To patch this in the meantime, make the entry look like:

```
[Desktop Entry]
Name=DBeaver
Exec=/usr/lib/dbeaver/dbeaver %u
Icon=/usr/lib/dbeaver/icon.xpm
Type=Application
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/eclipse+command;
```
and run `sudo update-desktop-database ~/.local/share/applications/`.
