To add a menu for a package, you have to create a file under
/usr/lib/menu/<package> with a content like that:
?package(<package>):needs="x11" section="<hieratrchy from bellow>" title="<menu
text>" \
longtitle="<my long description>" command="<command>"
and add to the %post and %postun of the spec file, the following:
%post
if [ -x /usr/bin/update-menus ]; then
/usr/bin/update-menus
fi
%postun
if [ "$1" = 0 ]; then
if [ -x /usr/bin/update-menus ]; then
/usr/bin/update-menus
fi
fi
For example, a menu entry for lavaps a graphical process viewer will
look like that in /usr/lib/menu/lavaps:
?package(lavaps):needs="x11" section="Monitoring" title="lavaps" \
longtitle="a graphical process viewer" command="lavaps"
For more info, read the doc in the menu package in /usr/doc/menu-*.
