Start with the Camunda Modeler release URLs and building guide to identify the binary release details. Read resources/platform/linux/support/xdg_register.sh and xdg_unregister.sh to understand the desktop file-registration behavior. Done means the package recipe targets the release and preserves the documented registration and deregistration support.
