kdenlive does not have a .desktop file

[Andrew Hunter]

Binary package hint: kdenlive

When run under the gnome desktop, kdenlive does not show up in the menu. This is due to kdenlive not shipping a .desktop file.

The solution is to create on and include it with the Ubuntu/Debian packages with the ultimate goal of getting upstream to ship it as well.

[Andrew Hunter (rexbron)]

Marking as invalid as kdenlive uses an alternative, funtional menu system.

[Wouter Stomp (wouterstomp-deactivatedaccount)]

Reopening this, kdenlive should show up in the gnome menus, no matter what menu system it uses. As both gnome and KDE use the same .desktop file specification from freedesktop.org, it seems strange to me that kdenlive would use an alternative system...
