Details

qemu-common has an useless desktop file.

Triggers some warnings in the journal:
kf.service.services: The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/qemu.desktop" has Type= "Application" but no Exec line
kf.service.sycoca: Invalid Service : "/usr/share/applications/qemu.desktop"

Maybe removing it?

==================
The file:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=QEMU
Icon=qemu
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Keywords=Emulators;Virtualization;KVM;
NoDisplay=true
This task depends upon

This is an upstream issue and is mentioned in quite a few places, e.g. [1][2][3]

The upshot appears to be: it's needed for a window icon to show under Wayland. i.e. it's not useless. I don't think we need to do anything here.
