I believe the naga.desktop thing only works in Ubuntu, and it has always been a little unpredictable. Using .bash_profile should be better and work wherever bash is used, but adding a line to .bash_profile could be a problem if someone tries, for example, to install several times.

The current master uses .bash_profile

I don't think it's better at all, in fact I think it's worse to use since most of the people will use it on ubuntu/debian/mint. Just because .bash_profile is not even called in ubuntu, see http://askubuntu.com/a/121075/401490
So I'd definitely keep the autostart solution.

Oh I didnt know about the Ubuntu thing. But .profile appears to be more general? Let's drop the .bash_profile then for now

Thing is that at least for me, in CentOS or Ubuntu, the autostart has never really worked out of the box...

Interesting, it always worked for me at least. But either way we can keep the autostart optional and use ~/.profile instead, but first can you try if it works for you?
