I've just installed pyxdg, as part of an attempt to build/install
foopanel - http://foopanel.berlios.de. When I run foopanel, I get the
following error:
Warning: Unable to load plugin 'menu'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/foopanel", line 37, in ?

for m in xdg.Menu.parse().getEntries():

raise ParsingError('File not found', "/etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu")
xdg.Exceptions.ParsingError: ParsingError in file
'/etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu', File not found
Although Google tells me that XDG is not actually a standard, there seem
to be plenty of apps/distros out there claiming to be XDG-compliant - in
Arch, the archlinux-menus package is an example.
So specifically, any ideas on how to get foopanel working? And more
generally, what's the story with XDG?
TIA
