Well the idea is to take the work off you to update with security or bug fixes, and save resources between packages, but if the project is a) not being used in other packages in fedora and b) not actively developed or maintained then it would probably not make a lot of sense. And no, it wouldn't be a blocker, especially in this case. > 3. Upstream issue. I've queried upstream. I can't think of any good downstream > solutions to this. Please help if you can. Well, after looking through the code and doing a little investigation, it appears that if it's going to get a .desktop entry, then some form of file-selector has to be implemented when it is run with no arguements. Unfortunately, I've never worked with gtk, so I don't know how myself. Seems like it would not be hard though. Not providing a .desktop entry for a gui app would break the packaging standards as it's required. However, we could argue to the packaging committe that it should be packaged as a "shell extension" (is that what's it's called in gnome?) only, but it seems dependent on the .desktop entry for that to work. Remove the .desktop entry and it no longer works by right-click on a file. > 5.
