(Personally I think that gnome-app-install package is not a useful thing to have.)

Hello, new to Trisquel dev so please advise if there is a better way to go about fixing this. I am using the regular edition of Trisquel 7 and am affected by this bug so I think it is not specific to the mini version.

I looked into this issue, and I think that all that would be needed to fix this is to add the lines

cat << EOF > debian/icecat.desktop.in
X-AppInstall-Package=icecat
EOF

to this file: https://devel.trisquel.info/trisquel/package-helpers/blob/belenos/helpers/make-icecat

And also add the lines

cat << EOF > debian/abrowser.desktop.in
X-AppInstall-Package=abrowser
EOF

to this file: https://devel.trisquel.info/trisquel/package-helpers/blob/belenos/helpers/make-firefox

I would make these changes myself but to me (gitlab account "habs") the "Edit" button on these files is grayed out and unclickable.

I think that gnome-app-install can be tremendously useful for new users who want a visual way to install packages with human-readable names and pictures.
