The attached tarball contains 30 .desktop files for applications which did not provide their own as well as suggested icons to be used with Pingus and DosBox. During the construction of said tarball, I also noticed (and locally corrected) the following problems: Existing .desktop files which are not copied into place by emerge: - xine.desktop - nicotine.desktop - xtraceroute.desktop (and xtraceroute.png) - Just not in locations Xfce can see: - kshisen.desktop - ark.desktop Existing .desktop files using icon paths which don't work with all desktop environments: - nmapfe.desktop (expects GNOME standard icons to be present) - programs which expect KDE icon path completion: - kshisen.desktop - ark.desktop - filelight.desktop Files in need of correction: - Aumix needs to have a line saying "Categories=Application;Multimedia;AudioVideo;" added to it's .desktop file. - GTKam's desktop file doesn't specify an icon even though one is installed. - The OpenDict ebuild doesn't install /usr/share/opendict/pixmaps/icon-48x48.png but the .desktop file references it. - OBConf's .desktop file should say "System" in it's Category line. "System Tools" isn't a valid choice. - Until Xfce can configure GStreamer, gnomecc.desktop should not be GNOME-only. - Enigma has PuzzleGame as a category but the menu spec says puzzle games should be categorized as LogicGame. - The mozillafirefox.desktop file should add WebBrowser to it's Categories line - The gxmame.desktop file should add Emulator to it's Categories line - The "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;" line needs to be removed from the Ximian OpenOffice entries so that they will appear in Xfce. - xtraceroute needs a "Categories=Application;Network;" line. - Files in need of a "Version=0.9.4" line: - mozillafirefox.desktop - gxmame.desktop - xtraceroute.desktop Miscellaneous problems: - Xfce's menu doesn't seem to check /usr/share/icons since it couldn't find wesnoth-icon.png or abiword_48.png - Someone should suggest to the authors of Eric3 and Kodos that they make their icons backgrounds transparent, not white. - Shouldn't AbiWord's entry say "AbiWord" instead of "Word Processor" since some DMs (Xfce) don't sort into subfolders? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Actual Results: No menu entries. Expected Results: Menu entries.
Created attachment 72479 [details] 30 .desktop files for programs which lack them, as mentioned in the initial post.
Please, don't post summary bugs for tons of ebuilds, open a separate bug for each ebuild.
Ok, as long as you don't mind me whipping up a script to batch-push roughly three dozen template-based posts saying almost identical things into Bugzilla. I REALLY don't have time to manually write that many bug reports on my own and just making all of those .desktop files ate up enough valuable assignment-finishing time as it is.
You might even use app-admin/gentoo-bugger; sorry for the hassle but such bugs are essentially untrackable and unassignable. Also, please don't attach tarballs.
No problem. I'll hand-submit the few exceptions (eg. the ones where I'm providing suggested icons to be sent upstream) and then whip up a control script and template for the rest.
