common/environment/setup/install.sh: add vdesktop

[jony255]

Install function for installing *.desktop files.

Ideally such a helper would come with example usage by also fixing some ugly templates to use it. This way we can see it's indeed useful.

.desktop files go directly into usr/share/applications, not per package subdirs...

If $pkgname fits here, it's for the target file, but I don't think it's a good default either.

Also you'd want to use unquoted $targetfile, otherwise it will be passing an empty string as last arg and that's entirely wrong.

Got it

I thought so too, but some of the other helpers (vbin, vdoc, vconf, vsconf, vlicense) seemed to be working fine.

For sure, I'll update some templates

No need to revbump, most of the packages should keep the same contents.

Gotcha!
