Description:   Opened: 2007-06-14 08:08 0000 
Earlier versions flag the Encoding key missing as an error, but since desktop
entry spec 1.0 it is deprecated.

In line to the spec I'd like to drop the Encoding key from make_desktop_entry()
and make_session_desktop() in eutils.eclass. Could that possibly cause problems
with Gnome?

New ebuild with emacs support.

Well, it certainly will before the new version goes stable.  After, probably
not; at least, in my brief testing, it caused no problems.

WRT the ebuild: doesn't the unmerge use the same USE flags that were used
during emerge, not the ones that were set during unmerge?  They're certainly
saved...

Could you add this to the tree?

Not only Gnome's ;)

Indeed.. left it out.

0.13 is now in tree but we should keep this open so eutils can be 
adjusted after this is stabilized.

Reassigning to games since we wrote/maintain this block of code, as the primary
user.

OK.  This is now FIXED in CVS...

Thanks everybody!
