[Bug 1315693] [NEW] qt-demos doesn't have a desktop file (not in menu)

[Alexander Sashnov]

Public bug reported:

qt-demos doesn't have a desktop file (not in menu).

In other words there is no way to run 'Qt Demos Launcher' via
Applications menu.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Running Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome press 'Windows' button to show Gnome Shell
search prompt

2. Type 'qt' and see what results are.


Actual result:

There is no a launcher for 'Demos' (There is Qt Creator, Qt Linguist, Qt
Assistant)


Expected result:

There should be a launcher for 'Qt Demos'.


Additional info:

There is no '.desktop' file in /usr/share/applications:

<pre>
alex at hp-635:~$ dpkg -L qt4-demos | grep applications

alex at hp-635:~$ dpkg -L qt4-demos | grep /bin/
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qtdemo
</pre>

The binary above does what I expect- it shows green 'Qt demos' lauch
center.
