Typo in a .desktop entry #10

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hi,
I'm reporting a typo (unwanted full stop in the Comment entry) in the .desktop 
file.

This minor bug was originally posted in Ubuntu's Launchpad concerning an 
application which uses the .desktop files to present to the user a list of 
applications which can be installed or removed.

More details at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/app-install-data-ubuntu/+bug/666605
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html

Others projects choosed to remove the GenericName entry when it is redundant 
with the Name entry (but i'm not completely sure it is the right choice).

Thanks for maintaining qwbfs!
Andrea

You are right pasnox. The deletion of the word "with" is a typo (this time my 
typo) :)
The original typo is the final full stop in the Comment entry and a mere 
observation about the redundancy between GenericName and Name.

For solve the redundancy, other projects have choosed to remove the GenericName 
entry when it is equal to the Name entry.
