    Seems to be a bug, at least when installing in KDE:

    make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/ups-monitor-0.8.3′
    /usr/src/ups-monitor-0.8.3/install-sh -d /usr/local/bin/share/applications
    /usr/bin/desktop-file-install –vendor rudd-o –dir /usr/local/bin/share/applications ./ups-monitor.desktop
    /usr/local/bin/share/applications/rudd-o-ups-monitor.desktop: error: value “ups-monitor.png” for key “Icon” in group “Desktop Entry” is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
    Error on file “./ups-monitor.desktop”: Failed to validate the created desktop file

    This same error trips up installation of the current Gentoo ebuild, too. There must be a simple workaround, but haven’t deciphered it yet.
