[pkg-cinnamon] Bug#814771: nemo: refuses to launch application symlinks

[Michal Suchanek]

Package: nemo
Version: 2.8.6-2
Severity: normal

Hello,

I made a symlink on my desktop

lrwxrwxrwx chromium.desktop -> /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop

When I try to start chromium from my desktop nemo complains that the
application is non-executable and untrusted. There is no reasonable way to make
the application file in /usr/share/applications executable. The symlink itself
is.

Please amend this mechanism so that launching symlinks to system applications
is possible without nemo complaining.

Thanks

Michal
