Add LXDE to OnlyShowIn in desktop files

Created attachment 153515 [details] [review] Add lxde to onlyshowin The LXDE team in openSUSE is working on making sure gnome-keyring works fine in LXDE, and one thing that is needed is to have the keyring autostart apps to autostart in LXDE too. Here's a patch for this, from Andrea Florio <andrea@opensuse.org>
Committed, but whoops, I just realized I attributed it to the wrong name... Sorry about that Andrea. And thanks for your contributions.
Unfortunately I can't reopen this bug, so it would be nice, if someone else would do this. Just adding LXDE to OnlyShowIn is not sufficient because this is also needed in Xfce and other GTK base DEs. So it would be better to either remove the line OnlyShowIn= completely or to replace it by DontShowIn=KDE.
I think it's better to complete the OnlyShowIn line: we can't assume all desktops want t use gnome-keyring. As for XFCE, there's a bug opened about this.
I haven't found a bug for Xfce. But I disagree, because I know only one desktop which doesn't depend on GTK (KDE, of course) and I don't know a GTK based desktop which has its own gnome-keyring replacement.
Ups, have already found it and written a comment for it.

What about enligthenment? Also, it's probably wrong to assume that a desktop using GTK+ will necessarily want to use gnome-keyring, even if they don't have a replacement for it.
I don't know enlightenment - I know it from LiveCDs but haven't installed it yet. But if someone uses a desktop which has its own gnome-keyring replacement it's most likely that he won't install gnome-keyring anyway. So you don't need to care about these desktops. If a desktop doesn't have its own gnome-keyring replacement it can be assumed that it want to use gnome-keyring, because it's not a question of the desktop but the applications which rely on it. As far as I know network-manager-applet relies on gnome-keyring and network-manager-applet can not only be used on Gnome but also on Xfce, LXDE and other GTK based desktops. And network-manager-applet doesn't care on which desktop it runs.
