Feel free to edit the mailing lists if you reply to this, I'm not sure
firther conversation belongs on both lists.
That said, will applications installed by the new pkg(5) system be able
to insert themselves into the GNOME menus automatically through some
sort of pkg(5) action/SMF 'rebuild/merge' service like I've been seeing
described for other things (fonts, etc.)
on the pkg discuss list?
It seems like this functionality is a prime candidate for the technology
pkg(5) is proposing here.
