There's also a Makefile in the base directory that calls make for src/.
However, both variants work here anyway.
But please shorten the install line as mentioned in comment #2. If you build
inside of src/ your probably have to prepend "src/" to %{name}.

Ah, right. Now that you mention it, I'm convinced. :)

According to the guidelines, only GUI applications require a .desktop file.
Dockapps don't fall into this category to me. The following old thread seems to
confirm that:

Maybe you should ask on the packaging mailing list to get a reconfirmation.
