Here is another use case:
At build-time "desktop2menu" may be even more useful than "licensecheck".
Indeed B-D on "devscripts" and "libfile-desktopentry-perl" (needed by
desktop2menu) is a bit overkill but still helpful to translate upstream
.desktop file(s) to .menu during package build.
Cheers,
Dmitry.
