* Nathan Handler [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008-10-13 14:08:50 -]: Caroline, I am not completely sure why we diverged from the upstream .desktop file. There was line that I found in the Debian/Ubuntu .desktop file that was not present in the upstream .desktop file. This line, X -Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=Scribus, appears to be used for translations. I have tried asking around to see if it is still needed, but nobody appeared to be completely sure. In the end, it was suggested that I just keep it there. Alex, by upstream, are you referring to the scribus svn, or a Debian svn? Also, what changes did you commit? I commited the attached desktop file into the scribus svn for both 1.3.3.x branch and the trunk (1.3.5) that I am in the process of switching scribus-ng package to. The only difference between those is below. I am a bit perplexed as the result of these changes is not completely satisfactory. Only ScribusNG entry appears in the Graphics category of the Gnome menu. Scribus is still in the Other category. If there are other changes you'd like me to commit into scribus svn, so we don't have to use a debian/scribus.desktop anymore I'd be happy to do it. My latest packages in the upstream repository already use the upstream .desktop file, which simplifies the debian packaging. If X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=Scribus is not needed then the files can be completely unified between debian and ubuntu as well. --- scribus.desktop 2008-10-09 13:16:45.0 -0600 +++ scribus-ng.desktop 2008-10-09 13:15:31.0 -0600 @@ -1,12 +1,12 @@ [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Type=Application -Name=Scribus -GenericName=Page Layout - Stable +Name=ScribusNG +GenericName=Page Layout - Development Categories=Graphics;Publishing;Qt; MimeType=application/vnd.scribus-ng -Icon=scribus -Exec=scribus %f +Icon=scribus-ng +Exec=scribus-ng %f GenericName=Page Layout and Publication (Stable) GenericName[ar]=سكريبس GenericName[fa]=اسکریباس Regards, Alex. ** Attachment added: scribus.desktop http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18537832/scribus.desktop -- The scribus.desktop file does not specify a category. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 261615] Re: The scribus.desktop file does not specify a category.
Duncan, since we are not using the .desktop file provided by upstream, there is no point sending this upstream to Scribus. However, I just verified that the .desktop file in the Debian package is the same as the one in the Ubuntu package. As a result, I have sent the patch upstream to Debian. I have also linked this bug report to the Debian one to make it easy to track the progress. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #501961 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=501961 ** Also affects: scribus (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=501961 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- The scribus.desktop file does not specify a category. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 261615] Re: The scribus.desktop file does not specify a category.
It appears that this simple merge might take some time to complete. Like I stated in my earlier comment, I would like to make the .desktop file validate with desktop-file-validate as long as I am touching it. I was able to resolve all but two warnings. The two remaining warnings are caused by the fact that there are two comments for two locales. The comments are: Comment[fa]=اسکریباس Comment[lo]=ສະຄຣີບັດສ໌ Comment[fa]=نشر میزکار Comment[lo]=ເດດທອບພັລບບີດຊິງ Thanks to some help, I was able to figure out that these comments (as well as the other comments in the file) are actually the Generic Name. You can see this by looking at the .desktop file in Hardy. The upstream .desktop file also has this issue. I am now trying to figure out exactly what happened. I am also trying to figure out why we stopped using the upstream .desktop file, and if it is still necessary to not use it. I have attached the debdiff that I have made. It should successfully patch debian/scribus.desktop to make it appear in the Office menu. It also resolves some desktop-file-validate warnings. I would prefer to keep working on this bug to resolve the Comment/GenericName issue. As a result, I ask that you do NOT upload this debdiff yet. Thank you. ** Attachment added: scribus_1.3.3.12.dfsg-1ubuntu2.debdiff http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17861778/scribus_1.3.3.12.dfsg-1ubuntu2.debdiff -- The scribus.desktop file does not specify a category. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Łukasz Jernaś, thank you for submitting a patch for this bug. However,
Duncan Lithgow was already assigned to the bug, and he also had made a
comment stating that he intended to fix this bug. Also, since this is a
relatively minor issue, there is no reason that we can't wait a few
weeks for a fix. In the future, please pay attention to these pieces of
information to avoid duplication of efforts. Also, your patch does not
modify the .desktop file to validate with desktop-file-validate like I
recommended doing in Comment 2.

Argh, sorry. I'll wait till Duncan fixes it by himself then, although in a few weeks we'll have the beta freeze, so it can be harder to get this sorted out. BTW there's a better fix for that issue IMHO, because Scribus is already shipping a .desktop file by itself, but the install procedure is messed up a bit (some KDE related hack).

Thanks for reporting this bug and attempting to patch it. To get your fix included in Ubuntu, it would help if you tried transforming it into a debdiff (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Recipes/Debdiff) and submit it for review (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess). If you prefer somebody else to do that, that's fine - please just indicate if you're available to do that. The current debian/scribus.desktop file also fails to validate with desktop-file-validate.
