Yes, that would be nice. A small utility that gets the file name of the .desktop file as parameter should be enough I believe? We could then add something like the following to postinst: maemo-remove-screenshot /usr/share/applications/hildon/appname.desktop I believe that maemo-remove-screenshot would then just use the same logic as hildon-desktop(?) to get the file name of the screenshot and remove it. When the location changes (in the hildon-desktop source) this utility would also know about the location change, then.. (The alternative of detecting an upgrade in the application code and doing the removal "by hand" using take=FALSE is cumbersome) Thomas _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
