Patch for: #34218
%%%setup.sh installs freedesktop files (blender.desktop, blender.thumbnailer, and icons) to current user's ~/.local/share directory. Users can easily setup application menu and thumbnailer.
This script assumes blender, blender-thumbnailer.py, and the freedesktop files are in the same directory. I tested it only with bash and am not sure it works with sh shell.
Also attached blender.thumbnailer file.

Great. Thanks. Works perfectly in Ubuntu 13.10.
And apparently not working in Ubuntu 14.04
If I launch it with -f in my blender folder I get this:
and this is the content of the folder:
2.70 blender.desktop blender.thumbnailer copyright.txt GPL-license.txt jemalloc-license.txt LICENSE-bmonofont-i18n.ttf.txt Python-license.txt setup.sh

Talked with Sergey... and its a bit awkward where this fits in, a
setup.sh
file makes it look as if setup is necessary.Would prefer to use the same argument we have for windows.
blender -r
, this can setup icons and thumbnailer (using a Python script internally, see howBPY_string_exec
, inset_addons
, this can load some external script)Note that we could also associate Blend files with this blender
