Description Scarlett Moore 2014-10-15 10:52:39 UTC

Debian specification desktop-mime-but-no-exec-code entails:
The desktop entry lists support for at least one mime type, but does not provide codes like %f, %F, %u or %U for the Exec key.

If the application can indeed handle files of the listed mime types, it should specify a way to pass the filenames as parameters.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Package cantor with debuild/lintian
2. lintian error
3.


Expected Results:  
No lintian error

Hi Scarlett, do you know if this bug is valid yet?

Currently Cantor has the follow line in .desktop file:
Exec=cantor %i -qwindowtitle %c %U

Is it enough?
Thanks!
