yoshimi-1.3.8.2/desktop/yoshimi.desktop.in has entry "Version", set to the value of yoshimi version. This is wrong. This entry should indicate "Version of the Desktop Entry Specification that the desktop entry conforms with" as written in the spec: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html

So this should be set to "1.0" or just omitted.
Currently rpmlint gives warning about that:

[  147s] yoshimi.x86_64: W: invalid-desktopfile /usr/share/applications/yoshimi.desktop value "1.3.8.2" for key "Version" in group "Desktop Entry" is not a known version
[  147s] .desktop file is not valid, check with desktop-file-validate
