I read the instructions above:
Description
The targeted desktop entry specification version is 0.1, while all modern desktop applications use 1.0+.
You can find the latest version of the specification here: https://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html
Based on what I can find I am unsure if version 0.1 has ever existed; maybe a typo? Anyhow there are several issues with the file that I intend to fix (or have already fixed rather).
Issues:
- Update "Version" to 1.0
- "GenericName" key should not mention CHIRP, which is not generic
- "Comment" key "should not be redundant with the values of Name and GenericName" and format being incorrect: "Radio Programming Tool" instead of "Program amateur radios"
- Fix hard-coded icon name extension (Breaks icon themes among other things)
- Fix "Categories" using incorrect non-existing main category "Application"
- Add ability to open files with chirpw
- Add several "Keywords"
Updated by Bernhard Hailer over 4 years ago
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Target version set to chirp-legacy
Appears to be complete.
