If I install one of the rhl-*-en package from docs, I have to do a killall gnome-panel for it to show up with gnome-panel version 2.0.6-8.
As much as I hate to say it, you're the menu master now, Havoc. Is this fixed in the next release?
at the moment we're using the same menu code as in 8.0, without changes.
Where should/do the docs show up? In the menu? I want to know so I can see if this is still an issue with FC 1. Is it an issue with RHEL 3? If not, probably no problem with FC 1 either, in which case this one could be closed NEXTRELEASE.
Yeah, I don't get this either. Tammy: I know this is going back a long way, but where was it not "showing up"?
In the main menu. When you install a docs package from RH, it adds a desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ with Cateogories=Documentation;X-Red-Hat-Base; so that it should appear under the Documentation category off the main menu (the red fedora on the panel). When I filed this bug, Havoc said that the Documentation category should only appear if there are items in it, which totally makes sense. The problem was that it was not refreshing after installing an RPM that added a desktop file for this category. I had to kill the panel to force it to re-read to the desktop file with the otherwise hidden category. On an FC1 system, I installed rhel-sag-en-3-2.noarch.rpm from RHEL 3, and it seems fixed now. After installing the RPM, I looked in the menu and it had the Documentation category added with the menu item. You might want to test it again on a different system just to be sure.
Ah, okay, I see now. Yes, this should work fine these days. Thanks Tammy.
