2017-08-12 06:39:13 Bryce Harrington description Both inkscape.desktop.in and inkscape.desktop.template live in the Inkscape source tree's root directory. 1. What uses these files? If nothing uses them, can we remove them? 2. Can they be moved into a subdirectory? E.g. packaging? 3. Can inkscape.desktop.in be generated from inkscape.desktop.template? If so, can we drop the generated one? We have both inkscape.desktop.in and inkscape.desktop.template in Inkscape's root directory. The files look duplicative; we probably only need one, and it should be moved into a subdirectory. The rules in CMakeScripts/inkscape-desktop.cmake reference neither of these files but instead a non-existent ${INKSCAPE_BINARY_DIR}/inkscape.desktop.template.in. It creates ${INKSCAPE_BINARY_DIR}/inkscape.desktop, although looking at cmake's build output there is no such file, so the rule appears to not be working at all.
