No that would not be strange. First step: You can already formulate a bug report because you know that Lintian should warn about missing desktop and menu files of packages in section games. How this could be implemented is another question. > So, current variants: > 1. Check "there are no /usr/games/* which are not linked by menu and > desktop files.

Besides if the Litian warning is only informational there is no need to override the check. I also think it makes sense that packages like bsdgames provide desktop files for every console game. After all that's what the desktop key "Terminal=true" is for. Markus
