Thanks Dave. Yes it is a standard in Fedora too, to run that
validation tool when building packages.

I am attaching my proposal for the .desktop file. This is in (more)
compliance with freedesktop standards. There is one
desktop-file-validate warning left:
    rosegarden.desktop: warning: key "DocPath" in group "Desktop
Entry" is a reserved key for KDE
I don't know what that line does so I left it there. I also removed
the "X-Red-Hat-Base" category, as we don't need it anymore. There is
also a "X-SuSE-Sequencer" category but Dave might know better if we
really need it or not.
