Description
It'd be nice if one can configure the shell installer to create a .desktop file on Linux, especially for GUI applications
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing cargo-dist's shell installer entry point and how installer options are configured. Check the Linux .desktop file requirements for GUI applications; done means a configurable installer path can create a valid .desktop file when requested.
