Do you mean that with only having at the package:
./usr/share/applications/xxx.desktop
./usr/share/mime/packages/xxx.xml
triggers are automatically run?
With xdg-desktop-menu x.desktop the Categories variable altready
determines menu placement. Without this command, triggers already update
the menu?
Why transmission-gtk/postinst calls update-menus and update-mime ? Is it
some kind of compatibility measure?
Thanks.
