Re: [Zero-install-bugs] Missing package gui_gtk.cmxs

I've uploaded a new Debian package which puts the .desktop file in the
0install package (not in 0install-core). Hopefully this will mean that
the menu entry doesn't appear unless the GUI is installed, and
searching for it will prompt you to install the GUI:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/zeroinstall-injector

(my Debian GPG key has expired, so I can't upload packages directly for now)
