Hm, do you realize how much hazzle that is for such a little improvement? It is literally asking for bugs... No offense intended, I don't want to bash your effort at all! But isn't there a little window showing up and explaining that an IWAD file is missing if you click the desktop entries? Maybe we could improve that message with a Debian patch to point people to game-data-packager (like we did e.g. in the rott package). Or doesn't it show anything? I think it needs zenity for this, maybe we should promote it to a Recommends or even Depends? And for all the others who still want to get rid of that desktop entry, there are tools like alacarte for editing them. Thanks anyway! - Fabian
