Hi, I'm having a problem with a desktop file I want to distribute with one of my programs, however it doesn't seem to be showing in the menu after it's installed. I've got the "update-desktop-database" in my .install file as well, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Heres what I have so far:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Helix Notes
Icon=gnome-sticky-notes-applet
Type=Application
Exec=helix
Comment=A Simple, lightweight note taker
Terminal=false
Categories=GTK;Utility;
Version=1.0
I have no idea why this isn't working. Everything looks fine, right?

try
desktop-file-validate
after each line there should be a semicolon.

I tried that, didn't seem to like the semicolons. Without the semicolons it outputs absolutely nothing.
