Package: gnome-menus Version: 3.4.2-5 Severity: normal Menus coming from definitions in XML files located in /etc/xdg/menus/application-merged or ~/.config/menus/application-merged are ignored in Gnome.
/etc/xdg/menus/gnome-applications.menus does contain a <DefaultMergeDirs> that I think is supposed to make the contents of /etc/xdg/menus/application-merged and ~/.config/menus/application-merged be read, but that's not happening. Or maybe the default merge directories are not those, I don't know. I can fix this by adding the following line in /etc/xdg/menus/gnome-applications.menu inmediately below <DefaultMergeDirs>: <MergeDir>/etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged</MergeDir> That at least enables whatever definitions or overrides are in the mentioned directory's files. This bug affects me in 3 ways: - The additional menus created by the extra-xdg-menus package are missing, and menu items supposed to appear in that menus appear insted in the "Others" menu. - Menus and submenus created by wine are not displayed and their items go flattened into the "Others" menu. - My hand-made XML .menu files for overriding a few system-provided definitions are ignored. I see this behaviour both in the "Gnome Classic" session's Application menu as well as in the "Gnome" session's Application selector (or whatever is called the grid of huge application icons). A final, possibly unrelated note: I've found reports that this behaviour is also present in Cinnamon or MATE, and in different distributions. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_AR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=es_AR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-menus depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.9 ii python 2.7.3~rc2-1 gnome-menus recommends no packages. gnome-menus suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
