[Bug 501126] Re: .desktop file doesn't specify a category

[Siegfried Gevatter]

1.3.5-1ubuntu1

[rainct, ~]$ apt-cache madison gnusim8085 | grep lucid

I've just updated to 1.3.5-2 (from Debian) and there it's fixed, but
the line is missing a semi-colon at the end (that's not a big deal
though, gnome-panel understands it anyways and I suppose the same is
true for most other panels)

[rainct, ~]$ cat /usr/share/applications/GNUSim8085.desktop  | grep Categories
Categories=GNOME;GTK;Development
[rainct, ~]$ desktop-file-validate /usr/share/applications/GNUSim8085.desktop
/usr/share/applications/GNUSim8085.desktop: error: value
"GNOME;GTK;Development" for string list key "Categories" in group
"Desktop Entry" does not have a semicolon (';') as trailing character
