Right, this is because the .desktop file (and the install step) was expected to be only used by distributions. For running Tiled from the source directory, no install step is needed.

However, it should still be fixed. I guess it's better to have the file match the default prefix, but the real fix would be to generate the .desktop file and fill in the prefix that is being used.

For reference, this is about issue #383.

Closing this request since the plan is to go with a proper solution of either automatically putting the right path in there or to stop using absolute paths entirely. Going with this intermediate patch would only cause more work for current packagers. @Ablu is currently looking into it.

The application icons now install into the system icon theme.
This also results in the system always picking the best available icon to
display.

To make installing simpler (and to make the names more consistent) the icon
files were moved into the folders of their resolution.
