Please, see Bug#289773:

http://bugs.debian.org/289773

I actually saw that one just after I posted to this list (thanks for suggesting it though).

The bug suggests that there are some obselete directories (eg /usr/share/applnk) and some good ones, but it doesn't say whether /usr/share/apps/kicker/applets is obselete or good. I've looked for documentation on this in the Debian pages and the KDE pages, but not found anything that answers that question for me.

Can I assume from your reply that /usr/share/apps/kicker/applets is infact a good location for a .desktop file for a panel applet, and that therefore the lintian warning is wrong in this particular case?

Thanks,

Helen.
