You could look at the desktop-entry-lacks-keywords-entry[0] lintian tag and try
to fix it. I was planning on fixing it but wanted to prioritize the autotools
warnings. Hopefully we can get some advice from David.
It looks like you would need to create a debian patch file to modify
data/postr.desktop.in.in. If you are unfamiliar with quilt, take a look at this
introduction[1].
PS: Remember to fetch the latest changes, before making new changes. It might
help in avoiding merge conflicts.
PPS: desktop-entry-lacks-keywords-entry only occurs when using `lintian -EvIL
+pedantic` on my machine.
