If the "${LOCALBASE}/share/desktop-directories" directory does not exist in the system, the command "xdg-desktop-menu install .desktop-file" will fail. How-To-Repeat: 1. Install devel/xdg-utils 2. Make sure "${LOCALBASE}/share/desktop-directories" does not exist 3. Try installing a .desktop file with the "xdg-desktop-menu install" command 4. The above command will fail because that directory does not exist in the system 5. The following message will be printed: xdg_user_dir: /root/.local/share/desktop-directories xdg_global_dir: kde_user_dir: kde_global_dir: gnome_user_dir: gnome_global_dir: xdg-desktop-menu: No writable system menu directory found. 6. Create an empty "${LOCALBASE}/share/desktop-directories" and try again. 7. This time the .desktop file will be installed successfully.
