Bug#990637: Why do marble have several .desktop files?

[Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>]

Package: marble
Version: 4:17.08.3-3.2

I just noticed the .desktop files in marble confuses the script used to
generate <URL: https://wiki.debian.org/MimeTypesSupport/PackageList >
because it contain 9 .desktop files:

% dpkg -L marble|grep desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_geo.desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_gpx.desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_kml.desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_kmz.desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_shp.desktop
/usr/share/applications/marble_worldwind.desktop
/usr/share/applications/org.kde.marble.desktop
/usr/share/kservices5/marble_part.desktop
/usr/share/kservices5/marble_thumbnail_kmz.desktop
%

Is there a good reason for all these desktop files.  At elast some of
them seem redundant:

--- /usr/share/applications/marble_gpx.desktop  2017-10-20 05:52:49.000000000 +0200
+++ /usr/share/applications/marble_shp.desktop  2017-10-20 05:52:49.000000000 +0200

These two files could be combined into once by using

  MimeType=application/x-gpx+xml;application/x-esri-shape;

Perhaps the number of .desktop files in the package can be reduced?
