I meant that I included fixes for the "make distcheck" problem in #126 -
it seems to execute cleanly now for me since it's no longer building the
shared mime files automatically.  The capability for the end user still
remains (as suggested on bug #264043).

And moving is the worst, take your time :)

It would be nice to automate things more,  but what is there really that
you can do?  The desklets/controls don't need to be compiled, just kind
of moved into the tarball right?
