Description of problem: The WindowMaker application menu doesn't match applications that are actually installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): WindowMaker-0.92.0-16.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Look at WindowMaker applications menu 2. Look at Gnome panel applications menu 3. Observe that they don't match Additional info: WindowMaker understands auto-generated menues. I have a script that generates the application menu matching what's currently installed (adapted from Luke Macken's script that does the same for OpenBox). I'll attach that. It would be nice to either modify WindowMaker default settings so that one menu entry, e.g. "Fedora", is dedicated to actually installed applications. That would however introduce strong dependency of WindowMaker on Gnome, because "gmenu" module necessary for this functionality is packaged in gnome-menus. If this is not desired, alternatively the script could only be packaged, and users who wish to use the automatic menu could change their configuration by hand. Or you could assume that most users will have Gnome installed anyway, just surround the "import gmenu" with try/except, and on except generate empty menu. Users without Gnome would then have to remove the menu entry by hand to get rid of empty shell of menu.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
