Version: 43.0-1
Severity: important
Justification: will be rc in trixie

gnote fails to build from source when enabling the nocheck build
profile. A build ends as follows:

| ../meson.build:63:6: ERROR: Program 'update-desktop-database' not found or not executable
| dh_auto_configure: error: cd obj-x86_64-linux-gnu && LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 meson .. --wrap-mode=nodownload --buildtype=plain --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --libdir=lib/x86_64-linux-gnu returned exit code 1
| make: *** [debian/rules:7: binary] Error 25
| dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2

I suppose that dropping the <!nocheck> annotation from
desktop-file-utils fixes this issue.
