Thank you for your bug report. Could you upstream/send to the Debian the report? The way the .menu is currently done matches what GNOME is doing ... I see you reported bug #1192002 about that
Looking to GNOME old report I found https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557443 which was marked as NOTABUG with details "<DefaultMergeDirs/> really exists for third-parties, and not for the system-builder. I wouldn't recommend using it this way. Note that since the order of <Include> and <Exclude> matters, the issue you have with <Exclude> that don't work has an opposite for the case of <DefaultMergeDirs/> being at the end: stuff cannot be excluded from there..." The change seems contriversial and something that should be resolved upstream, unsubscribing sponsors, we don't want to get that in an distro specific way without upstream discussion ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #557443 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557443 ** Changed in: garcon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1213518 Title: xfce-applications.menu merges in a non-standard way. default overrides merge To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/garcon/+bug/1213518/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
