Sure, but in most cases the menu location is picked randomly by a maintainer in doubt and without the whole picture. I know that is how I pick the menu location for a new application. :) > As an example: the maintainer of upstream of Kicad can consider this > application should go into the "Development" branch in a Debian > machine, and it's a very reasonable place to put it. Perhaps. Or perhaps he had a quick look at the available categories and picked some that seemed fairly relevant. I believe that is the common case, not someone deciding that 'I want my application in this location, and ignore where everyone else put their application'. > The problem is not (usually) a bug in the menu in Debian, but > installing so many applications as Debian Edu does, and relocate the > menus to make them usable, in order to allow the end users (teachers > & students) an easy and logical way to find the application they're > searching. I am not saying it is a bug, I am saying that we have a more complete picture on the menus in Debian and could pass this information on to the package developers with menu entries that would do better somewhere else. So far I have reported 6 such bugs, and 5 is already fixed or promised to be fixed (the last one is noteedit, which seem to be unmaintained. :) Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
