What's the exact problem here? What breaks because these symlinks are absolute and not relative? I'm not trying to sound like an ass, I'm just trying to figure out what the bug here is... Thanks, Dan It has to do with copying /usr/share/applications to ~/.gnome2/vfolders in the process to enable menu editing. With absolute symlinks they still point back to /usr/share, while if they are relative they point to files in ~/.gnome2/vfolders. I created 3-4 bug reports at once on this topic, and expected at someone to question it. Menu editing in GNOME doesn't work and isn't supposed to work anyway... Closing as notabug. |
