From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040930 Description of problem: No entry for Mozilla appears on the KDE applications menu. Firefox, Konqueror, and Epiphany are on the RedHat/Internet menu. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mozilla-1.7.3-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Look for Mozilla in KDE Appliactions Menu 2. 3. Actual Results: Not found. Expected Results: Mozilla should appear on menu. Additional info:
There is no mozilla selection via GNOME either. It is possible to create a desktop launcher and moving this to the panel for launching mozilla. This is inconvienient though.
*** Bug 135852 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I also have missing Mozilla menu entries as well as Evolution. This is on an FC2 -> FC3t3 update with update to rawhide. mozilla-1.7.3-17 evolution-2.0.2-1 Note that this is in Gnome not KDE too.
I believe this was done because Firefox depended on Mozilla at some point. We didn't want two web browers in the menu. But I think we can remove Mozilla from the default install, and remove the NoDisplay line for FC4.
Firefox never depended on Mozilla. Epiphany did (still does), and so does evolution, so we need to keep Mozilla around for now.
I understand the cluttered menu issue, but still would advococate having Mozilla show up on the menu if it is installed. [OT: Can always add it, but (recent, e.g. FC2) past problems with menu editing make me and others somewhat leary of messing with KDE menus. Have had whole categories dissappear when trying to add/delete a single item, as well as duplicate entries that are difficult to get rid of.]
-> over to the clark
Hi, thanks for the bug report. Mozilla got the shaft in this release because of menu clutter, evo and ephy depend on it so we needed it installed on every desktop but don't want the launcher showing up since it is essentially deprecated from the distribution. Firefox can do everything that Mozilla did and more, it will import old settings and bookmarks so the transition should be a smooth one. As evo and epiphany move away from using the Mozilla libraries (epiphany already uses the firefox libraries) we will be able to allow the desktop entry to show since the package won't be a required dependency. Not sure about KDE menu problems, but it's probably a world better than GNOME's ;-)
