it's a desktop-file-utils problem. moving it to desktop-file-utils The menu items may be in the Other menu. Should also file bugs against maelstrom and xpilot for having .desktop files in the wrong place... desktop-file-utils needs to do better making up categories from the dir in /etc/X11/applnk Maelstrom is fixed. We don't ship xpilot any more. Yes, the items are in the "Other" menu. Seems to be fine in desktop-file-utils-0.3-5. >desktop-file-utils needs to do better making up categories from

It seems like this is still not the case: third party files placed into
/etc/X11/applnk/Games don't show up under "Games" but under "Other"
I know that's not the case, but the bug was that they don't show up at all, not the Games vs. Other thing. In the next release the menu subsystem will be totally rewritten anyhow, so it the Games vs. Other fix isn't really an issue that needs tracking I don't think. |
Description of problem: None of the desktop entries in /etc/X11/applnk/Games shows up in the K-menu under games. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.1-6 kdelibs-3.1-4 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: ls /etc/X11/applnk/Games/ Maelstrom.desktop xpilot.desktop xpilots.desktop Actual results: None of them can be found in the "Games" or "More Games" menu. Same if you install some third party games which put their desktop files there. Expected results: Maelstrom.,xpilot,xpilots should show up in the games menue Additional info: Probably there are other categories affected as well.
