Good. But the next version will come with it, probably, unless they fix
what is wrong or include an "if".

Sorry about that.

Please, don't.

It clearly needs desktop file utils even if the instruction is removed,
because the desktop files need to be installed. But some people use just
windows managers, not DE, thus, these files are useless for them. it
should be recommended, if building for a desktop environment, but
optional if not.

I would put in recommended with "(for update-desktop-database - see
Command Explanations)"

In Command Explanation:

update-desktop-database: this ... for DFU ..

I really don't know how to explain. Surely it is recommended for desktop
environments, almost useless, otherwise.

Perhaps move the command in general (/usr or /opt/libre...) to
Configuration and explain there when it is needed.
