I ask question about parsing error, in Launchpad question #691449. Answer was to file a bug. bug #1884815
Will show dialogue, between Launchpad and me. michael (yellupcm-gmail) said on 2020-06-23: #8 Manfred I was looking through Applications. I saw an icon I didn't know what it did. Menu Editor, clicked on it, this is what came up. https://postimg.cc/87jXr09B Clicked on details. Got this. https://postimg.cc/nsLcZzSr Clicked middle icon on right side. I got a page, that had many different sentences, in different languages. Using Google Translate, most said to do virus scan. Did two scans, first had three Trojans. I deleted them. The second scan is what you see. Later, I clicked Menu Editor again, this is what I got. https://postimg.cc/pyBGPrZF Manfred Hampl (m-hampl) said on 2020-06-24: #9 My interpretation of what you see: The "Menu Editor" starts clamtk to check the *.dektop files for wrong entries, and clamtk complains about some configuration settings in these files that it deems not correct. When you click the middle icon on the right side in the first line (.../clamtk-kde.desktop), you see the contents of that desktop file. It starts with [Desktop Entry] Name=clamtk Exec=clamtk %F Type=Service ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin MimeType=inode/directory;application/octet-stream; X-KDE-StartupNotify=true; Actions=openScanner; [Desktop Action openScanner] Icon=clamtk Exec=clamtk %F Name=Scan for threats... Name[af]=Skandeer vir virusse... Name[ar]=إمسح للكشف عن الفيروسات Name[ast]=Buscar amenaces... Name[az]=Təhlükə mövcudluğuna yoxla... ... Yes, of course you see the text "Scan for viruses" in different languages, because that is the purpose of a *.desktop file - giving a description for an executable program in whatever language you have selected as your desktop language. According to https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry- spec/latest/ar01s06.html the clamkt scanner is right, when it complains about "Type=Service", because the value 'Service' is not valid. This is something that comes from Debian and should probably be reported as bug there. For several other messages showing "Unknown error. Desktop file appears to be are valid.": The error message is incomprehensible. I assume that it comes from clamtk and might be reported as bug against clamtk. The message does not tell what clamtk deems wrong, so I cannot judge what okular should change to make the error disappear. Overall I do not see any severe problem or malware or trojans. michael (yellupcm-gmail) said on 2020-06-26: #10 Manfred Thank you for the explanation. Will mark as solved.
