If you run desktop-file-validate on your existing rosegarden.desktop and
remove any complaints it produces then I'm sure all freedesktop.org
compliant distros will be happy and I can remove my extra one from my
package. All this said, I haven't checked the supplied desktop file for
a long time, just did and these are the complaints :-
rosegarden-10.02/data/desktop/rosegarden.desktop: warning: key
"Encoding" in group "Desktop Entry" is deprecated
rosegarden-10.02/data/desktop/rosegarden.desktop: warning: value
"rosegarden.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name
with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the
Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
rosegarden-10.02/data/desktop/rosegarden.desktop: warning: key "DocPath"
in group "Desktop Entry" is a reserved key for KDE

I use /usr/share/pixmaps/ for the icons ATM and it's apparently
depreciated but the only complaint I get which is ignored by opensuse
build service is :-
rosegarden.desktop: warning: key "Encoding" in group "Desktop Entry" is
deprecated

I can't remember what I did with the complaint about the icon in your
desktop file but I made an xpm icon and gave an absolute path to
/usr/share/pixmaps/rosegarden.xpm, categories changed to :-
Categories=AudioVideo;Midi;Sequencer;X-SuSE-Sequencer;X-Red-Hat-Base; 
because the rpmlint check complained about "Audio" and I removed DocPath
completely with no ill effects.
Interestingly enough I had a complaint when I removed "Encoding" so I
just left it in and the build service check doesn't seem to mind either.
