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.
