No, the environment variable is for PROJ4 only, QMapShack doesn't use it.
You can try setting the variable in Exec line of the qmapshack.desktop file:
$ cat ~/.local/share/applications/qmapshack.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=QMapShack
Exec=env PROJ_LIB=${HOME}/share/proj4 qmapshack %F
Icon=QMapShack
Terminal=false
Type=Application
X-MultipleArgs=false
Categories=Qt;Geoscience;Geography;Science;
GenericName=GPS device mapping utility
Keywords=map;GPS;geocaching;waypoints;tracks;
MimeType=application/x-gpx;
StartupNotify=true
Name[cs]=QMapShack
GenericName[cs]=Data GPS - a správa map
Name[de]=QMapShack
GenericName[de]=GPS Daten- und Kartenverwaltung
The system-wide file is installed in /usr/share/applications and your
custom file should be copied to ~/.local/share/applications and modified
there.
Kind Regards,
