Package: winff Version: 1.5.5-5 Severity: minor Problem:
The package description of the binary package winff states: | This package is a metapackage to pull in either the GTK+ or Qt variant. This is not exactly correct due to somewhat implicit action of debhelper to include /usr/share/applications/winff.desktop to winff package. Also, the desktop file mentions "avconv" while current situation uses FFmpeg and it is gtk even when it calls winff-qt. Background: When I installed only winff-gtk2 trusting package description of winff, winff didn't have GUI staring entry point. After looking into the git source at https://salsa.debian.org/pascal-team/winff, I realize it only has winff.desktop. I see the problem. Possible solution. Option 1 (simple but sloppy fix): Since winff-data is always called in by the dependency, move winff.desktop to winff-data package. This can be done simply by renaming debian/winff.desktop to winff-data.desktop ... this is easier but Category becomes incorrect for QT package Option 2 (good fix): Make winff-gtk2 and winff-qt package to contain desktop file of the respective package. For this, remove debian/winff.desktop and add: debian/winff-gtk2.desktop [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Name=WinFF Comment=GUI for FFmpeg MimeType=application/winff; Exec=winff-gtk2 %f Icon=winff Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=AudioVideo;AudioVideoEditing;GTK; Keywords=avconv;ffmpeg;wrapper;conversion;video;audio; GenericName=Video converter GenericName[en]=Video converter GenericName[nl]=Video converteerder debian/winff-gtk2.qt [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Name=WinFF Comment=GUI for FFmpeg MimeType=application/winff; Exec=winff-qt %f Icon=winff Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=AudioVideo;AudioVideoEditing;QT; Keywords=avconv;ffmpeg;wrapper;conversion;video;audio; GenericName=Video converter GenericName[en]=Video converter GenericName[nl]=Video converteerder Here, I fixed FFmpeg thing and QT thing.
