profile files and desktop files are useless for tideEditor because:
* HFILE_PATH should be under wher user has write access (For example,
  HFILE_PATH=/usr/share/xtide/harminocs-????.tcd tideEditor
  immediately exits).
* tideEditor surely requires HFILE_PATH environ. With no HFILE_PATH
  environ, this cannot be launched.

Currently I am checking debian's script.

Well, when I directly use release number, i.e.
tcd-utils: 1.3.7-1  2  3  4  5 ...
xtide versioning become
2.9-dev 0.1.dev   0.2.dev..  0.3.dev.. 0.4.dev.. 
(then formal release) 5 (suddenly jump)

Well, for now I will apply this.
