Hi folks
While trying to figure out a way to install some desktop specific files
(such as APP.desktop or APP.appdata.xml) within the installation prefix
(instead of python installation) using setuptools, I started wondering
if it's actually a good idea.
AFAIK setuptools (PyPA) considers this a bad practice and doesn't (want
to) support this. It's up to the Linux package maintainers to do this.
I don't remember where this information comes from, but I'm 90% sure
it's accurate.
Peter and/or Nick might know more. Cced.
