I verified that the sample .desktop validates with desktop-file-utils
0.22-1ubuntu1.1 on Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS.

Robie, infinity rejected the Precise upload earlier with basically the
same answer. I thought it was worth me asking, but I'm not going to push
any further with the Precise update.

Accepting for Trusty. Precise is EOL, so I'm reluctant to break
expectations by touching it. If you think an exception is warranted,
perhaps ask ubuntu-release@?

** Description changed:

  Note
  
  Yes, I know precise is basically unsupported but it might be nice to fix 
Travis here anyway.

  Cinnamon (and the less popular EDE and LXQt) desktops are not recognized by 
desktop-file-validate in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS or 14.04 LTS.
  
  This is a problem because the very popular Travis service for continuous
  integration (CI) on platforms like Github still uses 12.04 LTS. Travis
  does not offer a 16.04 platform and the 14.04 platform is still only in
  beta. This caused this pull request to fail its CI check:
  
  https://travis-ci.org/zdohnal/system-config-printer/builds/222023750
  https://github.com/zdohnal/system-config-printer/pull/41
  
  This SRU adds these Desktop Environments to the recognized list for
  14.04 LTS: Cinnamon, EDE, LXQt.
  
  If accepted, 12.04 LTS will also add TDE.
  
  Test Case
  -
  1. Save the following lines in a file named calc.desktop
  
  [Desktop Entry]
  Name=Calculator
  Exec=gnome-calculator
  Icon=accessories-calculator
  Type=Application
  OnlyShowIn=Cinnamon;LXQt;EDE;
  Categories=GNOME;GTK;Utility;Calculator;
  
  2. Run
  desktop-file-validate calc.desktop
  
  The command should complete with no error message.
  
  A failure would look something like:
  calc.desktop: error: value "Cinnamon;LXQt;EDE;" for key "OnlyShowIn" in group 
"Desktop Entry" contains an unregistered value "Cinnamon"; values extending the 
format should start with "X-"
  
  Regression Potential
  -
  This only adds a few entries to the list of registered desktop environments.
  
  This change is backported from desktop-file-utils 0.23 which is in
  Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
+ 
+ [racb] Could there be some behaviour change somewhere that was depending
+ somehow on Cinnamon's status being unregistered? For example in a test
+ suite's expected output somewhere?
