1 I can't explain what is happening with the following lines:
2
3 doicon some_icon.png
4 make_desktop_entry binary Name some_icon
5
6 The desktop file is created in the KDE start menu, but no icon is
7 showing. Just the generic file icon. If I change the above to:
8
9
10 doicon some_icon.png
11 make_desktop_entry binary Name "/usr/share/pixmaps/some_icon.png"
12
13 Then the icon is shown correctly. What is going on?
