Package: desktop-file-utils
Version: 0.10-1
Severity: normal

> Description: Utilities for .desktop files
>  Some utilities to make dealing with .desktop files easier:
>   * update-desktop-database -- update the desktop-MIME mapping
>   * desktop-file-validate -- validate a desktop file
>   * desktop-file-install -- install a desktop file, munging en route.
>   * desktop-menu-tool -- manipulate a desktop file

You've already had reports about update-desktop-database lacking
a man page, but I don't see anybody mentioning the fact that
desktop-menu-tool has the opposite problem - there's a man page
/usr/share/man/man1/desktop-menu-tool.1.gz, but no binary.

"http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=desktop-file-utils&searchmode=filelist&version=unstable";

(Free bonus wishlist-level gripe: why are all the binaries in
/usr/bin/, even when they require root privileges and put their man
pages in section 8?  Wouldn't update-desktop-database and perhaps
desktop-file-install be more appropriately located in /usr/sbin?)
