Description of problem: An old grass.desktop file is used in Fedora distributions. Starting from 6.4.3 a refined grass.desktop can be found in GRASS source package. This desktop file should be used. The main advantages: 1. Menu entries (categories) are the same as for QGIS etc. (Education;Science;Geoscience;Geography;) 2. More languages are available. A patch should be applied to this desktop file: -Icon=/usr/share/icons/grass-48x48.png +Icon=grass
Thanks a lot!
Fixed in 6.4.3-3

Thanks Markus! The encoding item is deprecated though: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html
