The Packaging Guidelines contain a section on the packaging of Desktop files: .desktop
files and AppData files.
However, I could not find any information on how to handle applications that work with
application-specific documents[*]. For this there must be document icons and XML files
installed under %{_datadir}/mime and %{_datadir}/icons. Maybe there is need for some %post
processing?
Are there any guidelines for this?
*) Application specific documents e.g. a text processor that handles .doc files. The
application has an icon, and the documents (all *.doc files) have their own icon.
