Package: openjdk-6-jre Version: 6b14-1.5~pre1-5 Severity: normal Hi,
the icons corresponding to openjdk-6-policytool.desktop and openjdk-6-javaws.desktop are displayed by default in the menus; the former in the settings menu, the latter in the internet menu. However, the “policy tool” has absolutely nothing to do with the desktop settings. Furthermore I don’t see any of these tools do anything useful for the average user. The settings and internet menus are already too large, and we try to shrink the number of applications in them. It takes lots of effort to improve configuration applets just to remove one entry, and it takes only five minutes to add a useless java-specific entry by installing the Java browser plugin. Please add NoDisplay=true entries to both desktop files so that they are not displayed by default. This setting can be changed per-user with a menu editor for those knowing what they are doing. Another option is to add a "NotShowIn=GNOME;" entry, and to ask the KDE and Xfce maintainers if they want KDE and Xfce to be listed here as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages openjdk-6-jre depends on: ii dpkg 1.15.0 Debian package management system ii libasound2 1.0.19-1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libc6 2.9-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgif4 4.1.6-6 library for GIF images (library) ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpng12-0 1.2.35-1 PNG library - runtime ii libpulse0 0.9.15-1 PulseAudio client libraries ii libx11-6 2:1.2.1-1 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.2.1-2 X11 Input extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-2 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxtst6 2:1.0.3-1 X11 Testing -- Resource extension ii openjdk-6-jre-headless 6b14-1.5~pre1-5 OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspo ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages openjdk-6-jre recommends: pn pulseaudio <none> (no description available) pn ttf-arphic-uming <none> (no description available) pn ttf-baekmuk | ttf-unfonts | t <none> (no description available) pn ttf-indic-fonts <none> (no description available) ii ttf-kochi-gothic 20030809-2 Kochi Subst Gothic Japanese TrueTy ii ttf-kochi-mincho 20030809-2 Kochi Subst Mincho Japanese TrueTy Versions of packages openjdk-6-jre suggests: ii icedtea6-plugin 6b14-1.5~pre1-5 web browser plugin based on OpenJD -- no debconf information -- .''`.
