   On my (Leap) system my probable-equivalent file is a link under   
   $home/Desktop, it points to   
   /usr/share/applications/org.kde.konsole.desktop (I'll let you guess   
   which display manager I'm using) and that has   
   -rw-r--r-- 1 root root   
   ownership / permissions.   
      
   (the link is Desktop/org.kde.konsole.desktop)   
   In case that is not the actual file you need, I also have   
   /usr/share/applications/org.freedesktop.impl.portal.desktop.kde.desktop   
   and that has the same ownership / permissions as the other file.   
      
   Some files in that /usr/share/applications/ directory have in addition   
   execute rights for everyone, but they tend to be applications and I   
   don't *think* you need or want that in this case.
