Bug#728032: [mpv] Installs apparently useless mpv.desktop file.

[Bruno Kleinert]

Package: mpv
Version: 0.2.1-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Hi,

the package installs /usr/share/applications/mpv.desktop, which seems
useless to me. When a user clicks the mpv entry in a start menu, nothing
happens since mpv without any arguments just spits out some text on
stdout. In my opinion a user probably expects something to pop up on the
screen, e.g., to select a movie file to playback with mpv.

Cheers - Fuddl

PS: [Try-]Exec=mpv is bad, it should be an absolute path pointing to
binaries, to avoid possibly weird/broken users' $PATH environments.
