Comment 1 for bug 258586

I can confirm this bug in swami version 0.9.4-1build1 in Intrepid. Swami currently does not install a .desktop file. This can be seen by looking at the list of files it installs:

$ dpkg -L swami
/.
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/swami
/usr/sbin
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/swami
/usr/lib/swami/wavetbl_fluidsynth.so
/usr/lib/swami/wavetbl_fluidsynth.la
/usr/lib/swami/wavetbl_fluidsynth.a
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_audiofile.so
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_audiofile.la
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_audiofile.a
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_libsndfile.so
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_libsndfile.la
/usr/lib/swami/samplelib_libsndfile.a
/usr/share

/usr/share/doc/swami/README.gz
/usr/share/doc/swami/changelog.Debian.gz

/usr/share/swami/swami.glade

I will prepare a patch to fix this bug.
