Hi,
thanks again.
One question though: from the man page, dh_desktop takes only care of update-desktop-database, not of update-mime-database!?
Any other idea?
Eric
PS: I know it's not a big deal to add the commands myself, it's just a question of principle: if everybody puts its little fixes, it doesn't go forward.

I got the below bug report, and I'm a bit hesitating: on one side I understand the wish from the requester, and it would be a useful extension of the package; on the other hand, I already use update-menus and update-mime to manipulate exactly the same kind of information. Moreover the two utilities are integrated into the debian package system through dh_installmenu and dh_installmime.
The freedesktop.org menu/MIME system is integrated through dh_desktop.
Wouldn't it be a more generic solution if these utilities would actually take care of these "details"?
Yes, it would be good if the Debian system and the freedesktop.org system were unified in some way, so that we don't have these two semi-redundant menu/MIME systems. Hopefully this will happen evenutally. For now, I think the best option for desktop applications is to register with both systems.
