Linux .desktop shortcut needs tweaking

[azerella]

The postbird.desktop file that is distributed in the .deb and .rpm packages labels postbird with a lowercase p and the icon doesn't appear to be packaged along with the relevant files resulting in a missing icon.

postbird.desktop

for anyone coming from google,

you should be able to find the desktop file here: /usr/share/applications/postbird.desktop

Reading the comment from @azerella about icon was a bit confusing for me, I believe the icon is entirely missing from the .deb package somehow or it is not put in the proper place where the desktop entry can read it. Edit: I did not read the headline carefully, azrella does mention that icon is missing.

For me to get the icon working, I had to clone this repo locally and copy the icon from ./build_files/icon.png to ~/.icons directory and that was sufficient to get it working. You may need to reload the desktop as described here
