I didn’t look the details, but keep in mind that the e17 package and most application packages in Debian are used unmodified on the Desktop, so can’t contian changes that only make sense on the FreeRunner and cause problems otherwise. If, with that in mind, you know a clean way to fix this you are welcome to talk to the people in charge. Illume is part of e17, so pkg-e-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org is the right place to talk about that. It might be an option to patch Illume on Debian to behave a bit different with regard to application categories, e.g. drop the requirement for the Application category, but all with Terminal=True or similar. Any help is appreciated.
