Does not specify the location of the update-desktop-database script.
I currently test for XDG support like this:
if update-desktop-database --help >/dev/null 2>&1; then
But when update-desktop-database is not in $PATH, I'm out of luck.
Is there a better test? A specced one?
On one machine (SuSE-9.3) I found this to be the location:
${GNOME2_PATH}/bin/update-desktop-database
But if one only has KDE installed... :) I guess one is out of luck again.
I don't want to write 1000 lines of scripts, checking for variations,
I want a oneliner to check for xdg support, is it a dream, or does it exist?
