What is the output of: rpm -q --verify quake3 ?
# rpm -q --verify quake3 S.5..... /usr/bin/q3ded S.5..... /usr/bin/quake3 S.5..... /usr/bin/quake3-smp # yum -y remove quake3 # yum -y install quake3 # rpm -q --verify quake3 # Still no menu entries. Shouldn't there be one under "games"?
(In reply to comment #2) > > Shouldn't there be one under "games"? Yes one called "Quake 3 Arena", and there is, atleast on all my testing systems. You do not happen to have updates-testing enabled by default, do you? To be sure, what is the output of: "rpm -ql quake3" ? And what of: "cat /usr/share/applications/fedora-quake3.desktop" ?
My updates-testing repo is disabled. # rpm -ql quake3 /usr/bin/q3ded /usr/bin/quake3 /usr/bin/quake3-demo /usr/bin/quake3-smp /usr/share/applications/fedora-quake3.desktop /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34 /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/BUGS /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/COPYING.txt /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/ChangeLog /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/NOTTODO /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/README /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/TODO /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/id-readme.txt /usr/share/doc/quake3-1.34/md4-readme.txt /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/quake3.png /usr/share/quake3 /usr/share/quake3/quake3.autodlrc # cat /usr/share/applications/fedora-quake3.desktop [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Quake 3 Arena Comment=Quake 3 Arena demo launcher, will automatically download the needed data-files Exec=quake3-demo Icon=quake3 Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Game;ActionGame; X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.13
I just installed alienarena, as a test - no menu entries there either. I checked /usr/share/applications/fedora-alienarena.desktop - it looks very similiar to quake3's. Either it's a problem with my installation, a KDE problem or it's a KDE install-from-live-CD problem.
Looks like a KDE problem to me, as those are both perfectly valid desktop files. Changing component to KDE.
Try running kbuildsycoca --noincremental to see if it helps.
I just copied "kbuildsycoca --noincremental" to konsole and ran it. No change in the (lack of) quake and alienarena menus.
Um, just installed quake3-1.34-0.6.rc4.fc8 No menu entry. rpm -ql quake3 | grep desktop (blank)! no /usr/share/applications/fedora-quake3.desktop on my box. looks like a broken build/pkg to me. Reassigning back to quake3
Looks like that's by design, it appears. quake3-demo (or quake3-urbanterror or others) contain the .desktop files
fwiw, installing quake3-demo worksforme.
Rex, Then you either have updates-testing enabled, or are doing this under development. The quake3 quake3-demo split is recent, to allow quake3 (the engine) to be used by other packages without dragging in the demo .desktop file and autodownloader stuff. See comment #4 for clear proof that this isn't the case / issue in the reporters case. Note BTW, that the same quake3.desktop shows up in KDE's menu just fine on my system, iow I haven't been able to reproduce this. Anyways ping-ponging right back to KDE.
updates-testing yeah, I'll try to reproduce without it. (but I doubt it).
dunno, WORKSFORME.
If you can provide any additional information on how to reproduce, please do so and reopen this.
