I cannot choose Xfce here, only Enlightenment or KDE. I guess, with Gnome installed, this would also be in the list, but none of the smaller DEs (Xfce, LXDE, etc.). If I choose KDE, categories are in English, everythin else uses the current locale. If I choose e, I have no entries in the applications menu. As Raster explained in his reply to my first post regarding this topic, the e menu option is supposed to be only a fallback option, in cases when nothing else is available (hope I got it right). > > > > > Is my conclusion correct?

Either e or the OS seems to know, what entry to pick from a .directory file corresponding to the current locale.

Seems so, but where does e pick the paths to the source files from...? ;) [...] Thanks again!
