Description of problem: The Preferences and System Settings menus have extraneous icon menus under them, such as "Applications", "Games", "Graphics", "Internet", etc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.7.1-1.fc3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to latest redhat-menus package (actually this has been a problem for a while). Actual results: The offending menus appear under the Preferences and System Settings menus in the GNOME panel menu. Expected results: The offending menus only appear at the top-level of the GNOME panel menu, not under Preferences or System Settings. Additional info: This appears to be caused by the following markup in /etc/xdg/menus/preferences.menu (and system-settings.menu): <!-- Scan legacy dirs first, as later items take priority --> <LegacyDir>/usr/share/gnome/apps</LegacyDir> <LegacyDir>/etc/X11/applnk</LegacyDir> ... <DefaultAppDirs/> <DefaultDirectoryDirs/> After commenting out these entries, the problem appears to go away on next panel launch.

I haven't heard anything on this one, but it seems like it'd be kinda major (or is it just a bad upgrade from earlier versions?)
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
Closing per lack of response to previous request for information. This bug was originally filed against a much earlier version of Fedora Core, and significant changes have taken place since the last version for which this bug is confirmed. Note that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only. Please install a still supported version and retest. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Otherwise, if this a security issue, please change the product to Fedora Legacy. Thanks, and we are sorry that we did not get to this bug earlier.
