Yes, you need to include the installed .desktop file in your %files
list with a line like
  %{_datadir}/applications/*
or
  %{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop

Every file that the %install section of your spec installs into the
buildroot must be included in the %files list somehow.  If not, you
get the error you're seeing.
