tomboy: redux...

Words from the the creator of tomboy:

        Hi,
        
        The .desktop file is excluded for a reason.  Under Gnome the
        preferred way to start Tomboy is by adding it as a panel applet.
        However for KDE and other desktops, the only option is to run in
        the system tray.
        
        The .desktop is meant only for these other desktops.
        Unfortunately,  some not-so-old Gnome distros still do not
        honour the OnlyShowIn flag, so I just don't install the .desktop
        at all.
        
        -Alex
        
So... the intentional absence of a .desktop file is a "feature", not a
"bug".


-Joseph
