Would you be interested in including the .desktop file used by Debian #1063

Description

@sorenstoutner

My name is Soren Stoutner. I am a Debian Developer and a member of the Debian Cryptocoin Team.

Debian has an existing package for Litecoin, but up until now it has been maintained (not very well) by someone outside of the Debian Cryptocoin Team. We are in the process of bringing Litecoin under the team umbrella, with a commitment to maintain it well going forward.

As part of this process, I am doing a deep review of the current packaging. My packaging philosophy involves a couple of general points.

  1. Develop a good working relationship with the upstream project.
  2. Minimize the number of changes between the upstream code and the Debian package.

One of the things I noticed is that Debian currently carries a litecoin-qt.desktop file.

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/litecoin/-/blob/master/debian/litecoin-qt.desktop?ref_type=heads

Would this be something you would like to include upstream? If so, I can submit a PR for a file location of your choice. If not, we are happy to continue to carry the file in our Debian specific code.
