Description
BRoster::FindApp() doesn't work (at least in the Clock application, which calls the "status_t FindApp(const char *type, entry_ref *app) const" version with an application signature). It returns B_APPLICATION_NOT_FOUND. This causes clock not to be able to find its resources, and used to work some time ago (can't tell how much, though). I tried to track down the bug but failed. Assigning to Ingo who should know that stuff as he wrote it.

Reopening, because, although icons are now shown correctly in tracker and deskbar (wasn't happening before, it's a sign that attributes are added correctly), Clock still doesn't find its resources, and FindApp() still returns B_APPLICATION_NOT_FOUND. Also renaming bug. Seems to happen only if haiku isn't built under beos.

create_app_meta_mime() wasn't working correctly. This wasn't a Linux build only related problem though. Fixed in revision 16163.

Looks like the "BEOS:APPSIG" attribute is missing from Clock (and from any other application): listattr only shows BEOS:TYPE and BEOS:APP_VERSION. I tried adding the BEOS:APPSIG attribute to clock (with addattr) and the FindApp() call in the clock app started working. In which place are those attributes added ?
