Hi Have a read of this to select the correct categories; http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Package_Conventions/Desktop_Menu

that helped a bit! The error in categories was solved right away, but the error with the icon is still not solved in good way. When I install the icon in /usr/share/pixmaps/kfritz.png, it passes the test. But when it is installed in /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/apps/kfritz.png, the test fails. Their must be something else involved.

Hi You need to install with update_desktop eg;

%suse_update_desktop_file -i -n %{name}

(n = no translate, remove as required)

I would also run fdupes on it as well eg;

%fdupes -s %{buildroot}

You also need to add to build requires;

update-desktop-files fdupes

Also a good way to troubleshoot .desktop files is to unpack the source and run "/usr/bin/desktop-file-validate" on them from the command line and create a patch to fix the problems, this is what osc build runs.

Tried that one, and the desktop file fails on the Category with a clear message. That was helpful. It does not complain about the icon though. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

I looked at this (the source code), and it actually copies the icon the directory /usr/share/pixmaps, as I do now in the spec file. But I want the icon to be located next to the other kde applications and in /usr/share/pixmaps. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

/usr/share/pixmaps is an obsolete location, please use the hicolor icon theme as already said. -- Lubos Lunak openSUSE Boosters team, KDE developer l.lunak@suse.cz , l.lunak@kde.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

oxygen is no default fallback path. Non-KDE desktops or KDE with manual selected icon theme will not find the icon there. use the "hicolor" path instead. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
