a window manager's menu should be autogenerated by using the tools provided in the menu package. This way adding/removing/changing packages automatically updates the user's menu. In general if you are replacing an upstream file with your own you should do it at package creation time, not install time. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
