[Robert Braumann]

Package: tigervnc-viewer
Version: 1.9.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
After installing tigervnc-viewer, there is no .desktop file for it under "/usr/share/applications".
Please add a .desktop file with a proper .svg icon for being able to comfortable launch the TigerVNC Viewer from the DE.

Workaround:
Generate the File "tigervncviewer.desktop" with the content shown below, and install it with the command
sudo desktop-file-install tigervncviewer.desktop

tigervncviewer.desktop content:
==================
[Desktop Entry]
Name=TigerVNC Viewer
Exec=vncviewer
Icon=tigervnc
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Network;



Regards,
Robert
