Exec=osso-xterm 'sudo run-standalone.sh python2.5 /opt/shortcutmkr/main.py'
in my own .desktop file to get around it.

You don't need osso-xterm, also, by adding #!/usr/bin/python2.5 to the top of the main.py file and doing a chmod +x /opt/shortcutmkr/main.py in postinst, you can reduce this to sudo run-standalone.sh /opt/shortcutmkr/main.py.

BTW, shouldn't you be using run-standalone.sh sudo /opt/shortcutmkr/main.py, so it'd only require a sudoers entry for that file and not the run-standalone.sh script?
