Hi,

Just installed GPS in Ubuntu, late, as I usually use something else.

I encountered an integration issue, and seems the bug
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg774486.=
html
is still there

I had to manually create the desktop file. And by the way, there seems t=
o  =

be no file type for GPR files neither.

How to solve, locally (not system wide):

In =E2=80=9C~/.local/mime/packages=E2=80=9D create a file named =E2=80=9C=
gnat-project.xml=E2=80=9D, edit  =

to give it this content:

    <?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>

    <mime-info  =

xmlns=3D"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info">
       <mime-type type=3D"application/x-gnat-project">
          <sub-class-of type=3D"text/plain"/>
          <comment xml:lang=3D"en">GNAT Project</comment>
          <comment xml:lang=3D"fr">Projet GNAT</comment>
          <icon name=3D"gnat-gps"/>
          <glob pattern=3D"*.gpr"/>
       </mime-type>
    </mime-info>

That's the file type definition for GNAT project files.

Copy =E2=80=9C/usr/share/gps/icons/48px/gps_48.png=E2=80=9D to  =

=E2=80=9C~/.local/share/icons/xxx/gnat-gps.png=E2=80=9D where =E2=80=9Cx=
xx=E2=80=9D is your active local  =

icon set subdirectory (if you have one).

In =E2=80=9C~/.local/share/applications=E2=80=9D, create a file =E2=80=9C=
gnat-gps.desktop=E2=80=9D, whose  =

content is similar to the one suggested in the above ling, with tiny  =

variations:

    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=3DGNAT GPS
    Comment=3DThe GNAT Programming System
    Comment[ca]=3DSistema de programaci=C3=B3 de GNAT
    Comment[fr]=3DEnvironnement de Programmation GNAT
    Exec=3D/usr/bin/gnat-gps
    Icon=3Dgnat-gps
    MimeType=3Dapplication/x-gnat-project;
    Terminal=3Dfalse
    Type=3DApplication
    Categories=3DDevelopment;
    StartupNotify=3Dtrue

That's the menu entry definition and MIME=E2=80=91type application assoc=
iation.

 From a console, run the following commands:

    update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime
    update-menus

That will update your environment.

GNAT GPR files should display with the GNAT GPS icons, should run GPS wh=
en  =

you click on, and a menu entry for GPS should have appeared in your  =

Applications menu.
