Fix FILES_SUBST for APPLICATIONS_PATH & UPDATE_DESKTOPDB
Was broken in earlier change to allow apps to include desktopdb.mk
without buildlink3.mk to avoid always pulling in a full dependency

sysutils: Adapt packages (where possible) to USE_(CC|CXX)_FEATURES

2022-08-20 00:05:10 by David Brownlee | Files touched by this commit (3)

Log message:
Switch desktopdb.mk to not depend on desktop-file-utils
Consumers of desktop entries still register a full dependency
on desktop-file-utils, but apps that install a .desktop file
in share/applications do not. They still have a POST-INSTALL
step to call UPDATE_DESKTOPDB, but only if it is already
installed.
Should be not functional difference for any system with a
consumer of desktop entries installed, but for an app
with a .desktop entry the build of python, meson & glib2
may be deferred. Helpful for small apps and lower power
systems
