Package: lynx
Version: 2.8.5-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Lynx installs a desktop entry file in obsolete format and in obsolete location.
Today, both GNOME and KDE (and others should, 'cause it's a de-facto standard
now)
supports freedesktop.org's desktop-entry and menu specifications. So I prepared
a
standard-compilant .desktop file for lynx. Place it into
/usr/share/applications. Also you should add something like these to the
postinst script (or just use dh_desktop):
if [ "$1" = "configure" ] && which update-desktop-database >/dev/null
2>&1 ; then
update-desktop-database -q
fi
This is needed to update the MIME cache, because lynx is registered as a
handler for HTML files.
Finally, you should remove the old .desktop file in /usr/share/applnk/.
Thanks!
