No - with your package there won't be menu entries in recent versions of gnome since it doesn't update the desktop-database. And you won't have integration in the filemanager (mimetypes, what app can handle writer files, etc) - but that's not critical for me since you wrote that Gnome is not officially supported. > In step 6 and 8 I do NOT modify desktop files themselves. Yes. I meant the symlinks. There are no desktop files in the menu-packages, only links. The desktop-files themselves reside in the individual application-packages. >>regarding point 2) it is not enough to only place the files in the >>directories, >>you have to update the cache for the mime and menu files. >Apparently KDE is doing it itself as new entries in KDE menu were visible right >after package installation (no need to updated anything manually or to re-login >into KDE) No - it doesn't. You're providing the files in the legacy location/in legacy format, so KDE doesn't use the freedesktop-ones but the "old" ones, but again this is not critical. > for the steps 6-8 everything can be solved with one bash script where a > variable defining installation path can be declared.

You want to include a script in the package that the admin has to lauch after modifying it? Well - I still like the idea of simply changing one single link much better than to use a script that modifies multiple locations. > So makepkg is not necessary.
