Description Michael Redinger 2000-12-27 10:50:45 UTC 
kdebase generates a link /usr/share/applnk/gnome which points to
/usr/share/gnome/apps.
However, if you install a KDE workstation without GNOME, you get a broken
link.
Doesn't look too good ... maybe include this link in a gnome package?
Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2000-12-27 17:12:47 UTC 
Gnome packages shouldn't create KDE's directory structure either... There's no 
really nice way to handle this.
Using rpm triggers could create the directory when it's needed, but it would 
cause a mess because no package owns it (and therefore, it won't disappear on 
rpm -e)
