Bug#444651: desktop-entry-contains-unknown-key: Actions



Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.34
Severity: normal

While packaging kcometen3[1] I've encountered the next warning:

> W: kcometen3: desktop-entry-contains-unknown-key
> ./usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/kcometen3.desktop:6 Actions N:
> N:   The key on this line of the desktop entry is not one of the standard
> N:   keys defined in the FreeDesktop specification, not one of the legacy
> N:   KDE keywords, and one that does not begin with X-. It's most likely
> N:   that the key was misspelled.
> N:
> N:   Refer to
> N:   http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/1.0/ar01s05.html
> N:   for details.
> N:


I haven't found any specification or similar documentation other than this 
guide[2] which talks about the Actions entry and its effect on [Desktop 
Action XXXXX] sections.

By executing the next command I think it's more than clear that this entry 
should be allowed (and possibly added to the Desktop Entry Specification):

$ 
grep -r 'Actions=' /usr/share/app-install/desktop/ /usr/share/applications/kde/ /usr/share/applications/ /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/ | 
sort -u

An example of the above command output is the attached output.log.zip file
