Bugzilla Bug 58157

When I look for xine in the Gnome menu, it does not appear.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge xine-ui
2. execute in the command line xine
3. go to the menu (Applications->Multi Media->x)
Actual Results:  
I can install and execute xine sucessfully, but get no menu option to launch it
with. 

Expected Results:  
Expected to have a menu option as with MPlayer.
Don't know if this is because xine-ui is not a native gnome application.

to add to the uselessness of the gnome useflag with xine-ui i dont see that it
uses the ORBit dep at all that it has
i see no checks for it or complaints when its unmerged

Confirming:  I have the same problem w/xine not showing up in the GNOME menu...
 Just was going to file a bug re it..

The following needs to be added to the src_install() of the ebuilds:

	make_desktop_entry xine "Xine Movie Player" xine_48x48.png AudioVideo

Actually there is a little more to be needed to fully support fd.o standards:
the icons should be installed in the hicolor structure.
I'll take a look for it asap.

Ebuild patch with misc cleanups

The attached patch fixes the bug, and adds a few cleanups: it adds useflags,
removes unused ones, installs the icons in the right place, and so on:

- removes directfb useflag, directfb is already disabled hardcoded into the
configure.ac.
- adds curl, libcaca, aalib, readline and ncurses dependencies and configure
switches (see xine-ui-configure-checks.patch, which adds them)
- it cleanups the way ./configure is called
- it installs the icon in the hicolor structure
- it install the desktop file in the right dir (see
xine-ui-desktop-fixes.patch)
