Hello Daobing,
I do not mind applying your patch, but I looked the XDG specification
and all I could find is that
Possible value types
Some keys can have multiple values. In such a case, the value of the
key is specified as a plural: for example, string(s). The multiple
values should be separated by a semicolon. Those keys which have several
values should have a semicolon as the trailing character. Semicolons in
these values need to be escaped using \;.
However, the field Categories in X-Debian-Help-info.desktop is
Categories=X-Debian-Help
which is a single value. The standard does not mandate a trailing semicolon
in that case. So either desktop-file-validate is overzealous or the
standard is imprecise.
Hmm, maybe it's a bug of desktop-file-validate.
