Re: is lintian warning about .desktop location correct for kicker applets?

Read the bug report again. ;-)

There are at least two obsolete directories (the ones GNOME and KDE were using in the past), and the new one, the one that FreeDesktop standarized. But this place is __only__ for menus (and desktop files have other purposes, as your .desktop in kaquarium for registering a kicker applet, or the ones used for service menus, kparts, etc.).

OK, I wasn't sure that this was the correct (best) way to register a kicker applet. But I guess my package is actually doing the right thing already, then, and lintian is wrong.

Thanks very much for clarifying that to me :)
