I'm not sure how this works exactly. But I think when creating the rpm
you call a macro that installs the desktop file in the right locations
and takes care of putting it in the games menu, so it's not part of the
configure/make/make install cycle... not sure how to install multiple
desktops file correctly though. At the moment we are calling the xdg-*
directly via make. Probably also not the right thing to do, at least we
should check for the xdg-* executable before running it... I guess on OS
X for example this might break the install at the moment... If I have
some more time this week I'll look into it a bit more.
Also, there is no start menu in gnome3 anymore, is there still one in
the current KDE version? Perhaps we don't need to bother solving this
problem?

hmm, but .icslogonrc is a hidden file, so you can't just doubleclick on
it...
