Description:

Python3 package includes Idle3 IDE, but the package does not include /usr/share/applications/idle3.desktop, so it can't be opened by the apps menu.

Suggestion:

Include /usr/share/applications/idle3.desktop and respective icon files with the package.

The PKGBUILD just does a make install. Maybe you should ask upstream why that doesn't install the desktop file?

Yeah, and the python2 package doesn't install a desktop file for idle2 either. Would make sense if upstream take care of them during the make install process.
