Right, I'm a bit worried about tail-wagging-dog here. Please, no-one go around throwing .desktop files in terminal apps just to try and get them to show up in Software. Your package should have a .desktop file only if it actually makes some sense that someone would want to launch it from a desktop environment's menus / launcher thingy. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
