Problem with desktop file

English Open Build Service (OBS)
1

A lot of problems I have with OBS. I have read this site: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Desktop_files, so I using


desktop-file-install --rebuild-mime-info-cache tao-makefile-ui.desktop

command to install desktop file. When I install desktop file in install section, there’s error occurs I have unpacked files, but I won’t package mime cache. When I put installation of desktop file to post section, I have error telling me desktop file isn’t found.

Thanks for help!

Ok. I didn’t read documentation yet, but I think I found an solution. I called desktop-file-install tao-makefile-ui.desktop in install section and /usr/bin/update-desktop-database in post and postun section. It is correct?

Hi
Unfortunately I don’t package fedora stuff. Perhaps look at some fedora
src rpms that include what your doing and use their method?

Here is the one from gramps for fedora 22;


%post
update-desktop-database &> /dev/null ||:
touch --no-create %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor || :
touch --no-create %{_datadir}/mime/packages &> /dev/null || :

%postun
update-desktop-database &> /dev/null ||:
if  $1 -eq 0 ]; then
touch --no-create %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor || :
gtk-update-icon-cache %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor &>/dev/null || :
touch --no-create %{_datadir}/mime/packages &> /dev/null || :
update-mime-database %{?fedora:-n} %{_datadir}/mime &> /dev/null || :
fi

%posttrans
gtk-update-icon-cache %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor &>/dev/null || :
update-mime-database %{?fedora:-n} %{_datadir}/mime &> /dev/null || :
