### Describe the bug Inside KDE Plasma 5, opening links from Visual Studio Code… installed with vscode-fhs, like the one to log in to Settings Sync, opens a prompt to trust the web browser, which then fails with an error because the .desktop file is not writable, since it's a symlink to the nix store. ### Steps To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1. Install and open vscode-fhs 2. Open any link (easiest way is to go to cog menu at the bottom of the side panel, click Turn on Settings Sync and open either the Microsoft or GitHub links) ### Expected behavior Links open in the default browser configured in KDE System Settings. ### Screenshots ![trust](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/36717206/141117176-8dfd5149-bfa5-4881-afbd-9e30519bc913.png) ![error](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/36717206/141117239-763701b3-040d-4f75-85bf-e3ab2c087d3d.png) ### Additional context This is nixos-unstable, and I use chrome (😬) ### Notify maintainers  vscode: @eadwu @Synthetica9 @maxeaubrey Plasma: @ttuegel @nyanloutre ### Metadata ```console ~/nixpkgs/pkgs/desktops/plasma-5 $ nix-shell -p nix-info --run "nix-info -m" - system: `"x86_64-linux"` - host os: `Linux 5.10.77, NixOS, 21.11 (Porcupine)` - multi-user?: `yes` - sandbox: `yes` - version: `nix-env (Nix) 2.3.16` - channels(root): `"nixos-21.11pre328987.c935f5e0add"` - nixpkgs: `/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos` ``` Maintainer information: ```yaml # a list of nixpkgs attributes affected by the problem attribute: vscode-fhs # a list of nixos modules affected by the problem module: plasma5 ```
