Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: fityk

The .desktop file installed by Fityk doesn't validate using desktop-
file-validate. It also uses the "Office" category, which is
inappropriate (it's a scientific data analysis package).

$ desktop-file-validate /usr/share/applications/fityk.desktop

/usr/share/applications/fityk.desktop: warning: key "Encoding" in group 
"Desktop Entry" is deprecated
/usr/share/applications/fityk.desktop: error: value "fityk.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

$ cat /usr/share/applications/fityk.desktop | grep Categories
Categories=Science;Office;DataVisualization;GTK;

Version: fityk 0.8.2-1 (hardy)
