Package: xfdesktop4
Version: 4.6.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Hello:
Since 2007 or so, XFCE4 has conformed to the freedesktop.org "standards" and
put the "Science" category into "Education". This has been a topic of
discussion on the debian-science list and most agree that Science is not
always Education, and it is misleading to have research-oriented tools under
the "Education" heading. KDE and Gnome have addressed this by having a top
level Science category and it would be nice if XFCE4 would do this as well.
It seems unlikely that freedesktop.org will make Science a top level
category (we have asked and filed a bug several years ago). Because of
this, upstream is unlikely to make changes either so a Debian-specific
change would be nice. This would involve making changes in two packages,
xfdesktop4 and xfdesktop4-data. The changes required are listed below.
1. in xfdesktop4 change /etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu to have an
entry which reads:
<Menu>
<Name>Science</Name>
<Directory>xfce-science.directory</Directory>
<Include>
<Category>Science</Category>
</Include>
</Menu>
and modify the Education entry to read:
<Menu>
<Name>Education</Name>
<Directory>xfce-education.directory</Directory>
<Include>
<And>
<Category>Education</Category>
<Not><Category>Science</Category></Not>
<And>
</Include>
</Menu>
2. in xfdesktop4-data add a file called xfce-science.directory in
/usr/share/desktop-directories with the following contents (this has been
taken from kde-science.directory and gnome-science.directory). The icons
are taken by default from the /usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/categories
directory and there is an applications-science.png icon there.

Hi,
There is now a top-level science menu by default in garcon (the new menu
