           Summary: desktop file disabled in gtk-client
           Product: Spice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: gtk-client
        AssignedTo: spice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: mjc at avtechpulse.com


data/Makefile.am has this in it, which disables the desktop file for spicy:


# TODO: not sure if we want to do that
#desktopdir       = $(datadir)/applications
#desktop_in_files = spicy.desktop.in
#desktop_DATA     = $(desktop_in_files:.desktop.in=.desktop)
#@INTLTOOL_DESKTOP_RULE@
#
#MIMEFILES = spice-mime.xml.in
#mimedir = $(datadir)/mime/packages
#mime_DATA = spice-mime.xml
#@INTLTOOL_XML_RULE@


These means that spicy doesn't show up as an app in gnome-shell, which makes
life difficult - it has to be launched from the command line, or via a custom
desktop file. Neither option is user-friendly.

Can you enable the desktop file?
