You mentioned that this section is included in xdg already. But that doesn't really answer my point that it is deprecated in *Ubuntu*.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MenusRevisited for further reference about this, which was done over two release cycles ago. You may wish to ask the developers for further details, it's possible that the policy has adapted since then. -- vmware-player has wrong menu entry in Gnome https://launchpad.net/bugs/53521 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
