Proposed fix for Bluefish installation on 2.9.4 (fails because of hardcoded path)

[Vincent Rubiolo <vincent rubiolo free fr>]

Hello,

You cannot install Bluefish with plain 2.9.4 as the installation fails 
because of permission problem :
[...]
/usr/bin/install -c -d -m 755  /usr/share/applications
/usr/bin/install: cannot change permissions of 
`/usr/share/applications': Operation not permitted
make[4]: *** [install-fdmenu] Error 1
[...]

Basically, configure test for existence of that directory and assumes it 
is OK to write into it for the freedesktop.org menu. Same things happen 
for the GNOME 2.4 MIME and application directories if you correct this 
first error.

To correct this, edit the fifth-toe/bluefish Makefile and append the 
following to the CONFIGURE_ARGS variable :
--with-freedesktop_org-menu=$(sharedstatedir)/applications 
--without-gnome2_4-mime --without-gnome2_4-appreg

This will disable all GNOME 2.4 application and MIME stuff (as 2.8 and 
above use freedesktop directives) and make the fd.o menu dir entry correct.

HTH,

Vincent
