If you read that: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s07.html#mime-caching You can't find any trigger specification. So, a freedesktop integration installer should not suppose the existence of anything outside http://standards.freedesktop.org My conlusion (and i accept that could be wrong): supposing the existence of an update trigger is distro-specific. As i see, to make that installer distro-neutral, you only have to change: ### quote for the lines 137-142 of the install script ### if [ "$1" = 0 ] ; then # only run when erasing the package - other cases handled by the triggers if (which update-desktop-database); then update-desktop-database -q /usr/share/applications fi fi ### end quote ### For this: if (which update-desktop-database); then update-desktop-database -q /usr/share/applications fi Just like you do with update-mime-database. I hope it will help to get better the desktop integration for all distros :D --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
