Git patch

The file docs/gftp.desktop has some errors and warnings:


bak@localhost ~/Projects/gftp/docs $ desktop-file-validate gftp.desktop 
gftp.desktop: warning: key "Encoding" in group "Desktop Entry" is deprecated
gftp.desktop: error: (will be fatal in the future): value "gftp.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
gftp.desktop: warning: value "Application;Network;" for key "Categories" in group "Desktop Entry" contains a deprecated value "Application"


The attached patch fixes these warnings.

gftp is not under active development anymore and has not seen code changes for many years. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gftp/commits/master
The maintainer states that "I would like to hand this project off to someone compotent" on https://www.gftp.org/

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
