18 dh_desktop is a debhelper program that registers .desktop files.
19 Currently this program does not handle installation of the files, though it
20 may do so at a later date. It takes care of adding maintainer script
21 fragments to call F<update-desktop-database>.
27 foreach my $package (@{$dh{DOPACKAGES}}) {
28 my $tmp=tmpdir($package);
30 if (-d "$tmp/usr/share/applications") {
31 # Get a list of the desktop files that are in
32 # usr/share/applications and thus might need
33 # update-desktop-database be called. Other desktop
35 my $desktop_files = `find $tmp/usr/share/applications -type f -name \\*.desktop -printf '%p\n'`;
36 if ($desktop_files && ! $dh{NOSCRIPTS}) {
37 autoscript($package,"postinst","postinst-desktop");
38 autoscript($package,"postrm","postrm-desktop");
47 This program is a part of debhelper.
