Well, no. Putting a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications doesn't make sense. I agree with that. What I'm suggesting is to put a .desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart, which has a different effect - it spares one the effort of manually editing the autostart file. It's what several Arch packages do, polkit and wicd among them.

I'm not sure if everyone would find a .desktop file useful, it maybe seen as clutter in a desktop menu. As a Vattery user myself I just put an entry in my autostart file to start Vattery when I login. I would add a .desktop file if enough people wanted it, but I think the autostart script is the correct way to start Vattery. Regards Marshall (timttmy)

I find it useful to create a freedesktop.org-compliant autostart entry for vattery, by appending the following snippet to the end of the PKGBUILD: mkdir -p "${pkgdir}"/etc/xdg/autostart DESKTOPFILE="${pkgdir}"/etc/xdg/autostart/${pkgname}.desktop echo "[Desktop Entry]" > "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Name=Vattery (battery monitor for the systray)" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Comment=Battery monitor for the systray" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Icon=battery" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Exec=vattery" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Terminal=false" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Type=Application" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "Categories=GTK;Utility;Core;" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}" echo "NotShowIn=KDE;" >> "${DESKTOPFILE}"

The segfaulting is probably all my fault. Please submit bug reports at https://bugs.launchpad.net/vattery

Also segfaults for me after the last update: (vattery:1648): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_regex_match_full: assertion `regex != NULL' failed

It's working fine for me (eeepc 701)
