[issue1353344] python.desktop

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

>From a downstream redistributor point of view, the key pieces it would be handy to consolidate upstream are the desktop file itself (with all the translations) and the preferred icon. It wouldn't really help much to have it integrated into "make install" since most redistributors split out tkinter and IDLE packages from the base installation anyway.

However, as Terry says, before the change can be accepted, those files need to be combined into an actual patch that:

- adds the desktop file and the icon to the Misc directory
- updates Misc/README to describe the new files
