Can't use nautilus to edit the Gnome menu
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:46 EST
Description of problem: It is impossible to add or remove, things from the Gnome menu either using nautilus applications:/// folder structure Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open nautilus in filebrowsing mode. 2. Go to applications:/// (if logged in as ordinary user) or applications-all-users:/// (if logged in as root) 3. Add new or remove folder or program starter 4. Log out, and log in again. Actual results: The applications:/// shows up as expected but you are not allowed to add new folders or starters to the menu. The applications-all-users:/// location doesn't even seam to exist even if logged in as root. Expected results: The Gnome menu should have changed. Additional info:
This is a well known issue. The editable vfolders code is disabled because its very unstable. We're working on better ways to handle menu editing, but its unlikely to show up in fc3. Current target is gnome 2.10.
