I'm working on packaging The Powder Toy. When it first starts, it asks ifthe user wants to install it.
‘Install’? That doesn't sound good. :-) <https://github.com/The-Powder-Toy/The-Powder-Toy/blob/master/src/client/Client.cpp#L366>.From my reading, that will embed a store file name into a .desktop file somewhere in (each) user's $HOME, which will break sooner or later.
When the user clicks confirm, it tries to use xdg-desktop-menu, xdg-mime, and xdg-icon-resource.Is this a safe behavior with guix, or should I try to patch it out? If it is safe, should I bother trying to install a desktop icon with guix ifthe program will do that itself?
Even if I'm wrong and it's ‘safe’, I don't see how this behaviour is desirable. What is upstream trying to accomplish here? Do you see how this would be helpful compared to doing things the normally?
If not, I think we have a responsibility towards our users to install a copy of the above .desktop file and patch out any xdg-desktop-menu calls. Same for MIME types and icons.
Kind regards, T G-R
