I think for fixing your local environment, the best is to commit a local
patch like below, that should just ignore the error. Granted, that would
install a probably invalid desktop file, but that happened before as
well (and it seemed nobody noticed since the desktop files are generated
from the po files directly (8.1.1147)).
Well, at least Debian and Ubuntu do not offer official packages newer
than 8.1.0875, in case of Debian this is probably due to the buster
freeze).
That patch could be stashed on top, or just kept around in your local
repository, shouldn't really matter.
