Bug#893635: does not show up in GNOME's application menus

Package: freeplane
Version: 1.5.18-1
Severity: important

The .desktop file installed by this package seems to be improperly
detected by GNOME, which does not show it in the expected location (in
the "Office" submenu).

I have found that the following patch fixes the issue:

--- /usr/share/applications/freeplane.desktop	2016-12-10 12:08:55.000000000 -0500
+++ freeplane.desktop	2018-03-20 14:16:27.182938569 -0400

 Version=1.0
 Name=Freeplane
 Exec=/usr/bin/freeplane %F
-Terminal=false
+#Terminal=false
 Icon=freeplane
 Type=Application
 MimeType=application/x-freeplane;


This is strange, because that entry is accurate: the program *is* not
setup to run in a terminal, and that entry shouldn't cause
problems. This, at least, is what the spec says here:

https://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s06.html

I wonder what's going on here...
