You said earlier that you want a sponsor, if by that you meant that you want this package to be uploaded to Debian then it cannot use /usr/local or /opt. Otherwise, the Policy doesn't apply to unofficial packages that won't go into Debian so you can do whatever you want in those and it doesn't make sense to fix all lintian output in them. debian-mentors@ OTOH is not a correct place to discuss those. > * KDE has a *requirement* that .desktop files be executable Does it? -- WBR, wRAR
