Subject: scanf behavior is locale-dependent, and the numeric type shouldn't
 be.

2007-04-28  Vincent Untz  <vuntz@gnome.org>

	* desktop-entry-spec.xml: scanf behavior is locale-dependent, and the
	numeric type shouldn't be. Specify that the value is a floating point
	number as recognized by scanf in the C locale.
	Thanks to Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org> for catching this.
