Package: system-config-printer
Version:1.0.0-3

Fragment from my buildlog:

desktop-file-install    \
      --dir 
/data/tparker/src/system-config-printer-1.0.0/debian/tmp//usr/share/applications/
    \
      --add-category System            \
      --add-category Settings        \
      --add-category HardwareSettings    \
      --add-category Printing        \
      --add-category GTK            \
      system-config-printer.desktop
Must specify the vendor namespace for these files with --vendor
make[3]: *** [install-desktopDATA] Error 1

According to http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/desktop-file-utils,
versions of desktop-file-utils >= 0.13 don't need --vendor and so therefore
system-config-printer needs a dependency on this, as opposed to the current
unversioned dependency. I've checked this against 0.15 and it works ok now.
This isn't so much of an issue for mainstream Debian use (as
desktop-file-utils is already >=0.13 in lenny and sid) but for backporters
like myself it would be very useful (plus, it's generally a good idea to
have more accurate dependencies specified).

Thanks!
