Hi,

I found some issues concerning the desktop entry file of referencer:

The TryExec field is useless. [1] states this field is supposed to call
an executable to find out if the program is actually installed. This
field is optional and I suggest to remove it from the .desktop file.

The Exec field calls referencer without an absolute path. I'd suggest to
call /usr/bin/referencer directly as this avoids messing with users'
PATH environment.

The program desktop-file-validate (package desktop-file-utils)
complains:
---- [ snip ] ----
/usr/share/applications/referencer.desktop: warning: value
"GNOME;Application;Office;" for key "Categories" in group "Desktop
Entry" contains a deprecated value "Application"
---- [ snap ] ----

I've attached a patch that hopefully addresses all issues.

Cheers - Fuddl
