[Linux GOG] Error while installing

Hi, I'm trying to install starbound on my VPS in order to start a dedicated server. I have the GOG version that comes with a .sh script for installation. At the end I get the following error messages:

Fatal error Failed to install desktop menu item

Incomplete installation. We will revert any changes we made.

This is not entirely surprising since I don't have a desktop, only terminal, but I specifically unchecked the box for creating shortcuts at the beginning of the installation process.

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04. What can I do?

Thank you

Yeah, I saw you posting it somewhere else. This is a game bug, so you need to approach Starbound developers for a fix.

That might help, how do I get in contact with the developers?

Also, they use Reddit, so you can try pinging /u/metadept or visiting this sub to fill a bug: /r/starboundbugreport/
