The problem is that ~/.local/share/applications is not monitored. If you right click on ibar and choose the "Add Application" entry, the list of available applications will be empty. The same if you choose the "Open with.." entry of the built-in file manager after right clicking on a folder or file. Only ~/.e/e/applications/all is partially monitored. The "Open with..." entry of the built-in file manager shows up a list corresponding to the desktop files that are in ~/.e/e/applications/all, however nothing seems to happen when choosing one. I tend to agree with morlenxus' solution to look for desktop files at locations indicated by the user. This is because on my gentoo box almost all the applications I install put their desktop files in /usr/share/applications. Now I am not sure about the freedesktop standards that were (partially) implemented in e17...
