Please don't play bug ping-pong.

I'm not going to change it in Debian -- "Education" is a parent category
of "Geography", and it should be included.

Citing the freedesktop standard:

"... The list of Main Categories consist of those categories that every
conforming desktop environment MUST support. By including one of these
categories in an application's desktop entry file the application will
be ensured that it will show up in a section of the application menu
dedicated to this category. The list of Additional Categories provides
categories that can be used to provide more fine grained information
about the application. Additional Categories should always be used in
combination with one of the Main Categories. ..."

That means, not everybody is using Gnome, or Unity, or whatever. One
could also use a DE not supporting "Geography", so JOSM must fall inside
"Education".

If there's a bug, it's in USC, since it shouldn't show a software in a
main category, if an "additional category" is listed.

Closing again.
