Yes, nobody proposes to ignore that bug, it's just that there's thousand of packages out there with errors in the .desktop file (no kidding, every time I update a package from upstream I spot those kind of errors even though the stuff has been in Debian/Ubuntu for ages - also has to do with the fact the policy changes about every other month). Considering it takes a few hours to work on that (and even more if you count having to track somebody to upload the fix, and then submitting that to Debian), I'd rather wait till I can fix the whole .desktop file instead of doing the work two times.

Thanks for submitting the bug, it was a good occasion to spot other problems at the same time. Anybody can submit a patch in the meantime, but else I'll fix that when I get more info from upstream on the other subjects. Which could be today or in two month ;)
