Why becomes the *.desktop installed but the *.xpm not in my PKGBUILD?

Hi,
I'm a bit confused. I created a desktop and xpm file for vidalia. Here's the PKGBUILD:

pkgname=vidalia
pkgver=0.1.10
pkgrel=3
pkgdesc="Controller GUI for Tor"
url="http://vidalia-project.net"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
license="GPL"
depends=('qt>=4.2.0' 'tor')
makedepends=('cmake>=2.4.0')
source=(http://vidalia-project.net/dist/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz \
    vidalia.xpm \
    vidalia.desktop)
md5sums=('9533fe2c29fe50d363c6e5b369ec8938'
     'be9fc03972f10a06ad54ef40d6ea2246'
     'd44470eb06ae46866b3fc44ebe6c7538')

build() {
[ -f /etc/profile.d/qt4.sh ] && source /etc/profile.d/qt4.sh

cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .
make || return 1
make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install
cd ..
install -Dm644 vidalia.xpm $srcdir/usr/share/pixmaps/vidalia.xpm
install -Dm644 vidalia.desktop $srcdir/usr/share/applications/vidalia.desktop 
}

The makepkg:

/var/abs/local/vidalia$ makepkg

The problem:

$ ls -al /usr/share/applications |grep  vidalia
-rw-r--r--   1 root root  116  3. Nov 02:43 vidalia.desktop
$ ls -al /usr/share/pixmaps |grep vidalia     
$

Why is the desktop file installed but the xpm not? Both files ly in the same directory /var/abs/local/vidalia and have the same permission. You can also see in the pacman -U output that the desktop is installed but not the xpm file!

Well, it seems a desktop file is being installed by the "make install" part so you do not need to do it manually.

For the icon

install -Dm644 vidalia.xpm $srcdir/usr/share/pixmaps/vidalia.xpm

you want to install to $pkgdir, not $srcdir.

I would also remove the "cd .." prior to the install and just do the following

install -Dm644 $srcdir/vidalia.xpm $pkgdir/usr/share/pixmaps/vidalia.xpm
