Summary: .desktop menu in wrong directory

Initial Comment:
For the Fedoca Core 5 package the Bibletime .desktop
menu is in the wrong directory, so that in Gnome 2.14,
there is no menu icon for Bibletime.

Package version:
bibletime-1.5.3-1.fc5

Not good directory:
/usr/share/applnk/Applications/bibletime.desktop 

Better directory:
/usr/share/applications/bibletime.desktop

I'm not sure exactly what the difference is.  Maybe the
"not good" directory is deprecated or used by some
other software, but Gnome 2.14 in Fedora Core 5 really
does like the latter directory.  

Maybe you could use a symlink to place the file in both
locations.

This seems to be correct according to the LSB. /usr/share/applications is the desktop-neutral location.
