Description

When using DESTDIR (for creating packages) the xdg-stuff that provides the fancy icons in the menus has to be done by hand. Which is simply because the xdg-utils can't deal with DESTDIR.

Either we should ship our own hacked version of the xdg-utils or try to find another way. For example an own install-routine when using DESTDIR...

  • priority changed from major to minor.
  • version set to FFADO 2.0-rc1 (1.999.40).

The way I have got around this problem is to call xdg-desktop-menu and -icon in the postinst and prerm maintainer scripts. The main issue is that it can not be run on the build system but needs to be run at install time.

I think that is a much cleaner solution than shipping a modified xdg-tools.
