Build and install dia.desktop
This is a simple issue extracted from #31. If anybody has a bit of spare time a Merge Request would be very welcomed.
Currently we don't install a dia.desktop on *nix (Note that this doesn't need to be installed on Windows).
Start by having a look at this review comment and the old makefile
You can draw inspiration from other meson projects. The ones I've looked at are baobab and recipes (as per Zander's suggestion) but you can check others as well.
Also check out the specification for .desktop files. This is because our dia.desktop
is quite old and might need a bit of cleanup.
The tasks therefore are:
-
clean up dia.desktop.in.in
-
write meson code to perform translation -
use meson vcs_tag()
to replace the version -
install dia.desktop
Feel free to leave comments if you have any questions or if you like to work on this.
