 ps. I'll also be posting a bug-report to gnome-menus as that package
 doesn't list menu-xdg as a recommended/suggested package.

Hello Pete,

Actually gnome-panel should Depends on menu-xdg. This is the real bug
and it is much more important to fix than whether menu-xdg is
easy to find since users should never have to install menu-xdg manually.

I am surprise it take so much time to get resolved.

Cheers,

Package: menu-xdg
Version: all

Hi Christopher,

My debian menu went AWOL some time ago. Finally, with the help of this
[http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2005/10/msg01203.html] post I was
able to restore it. It would have been a lot easier for me if the
package had had a more logical name such as 'debian-menu', rather than
the cryptic 'menu-xdg'. If not desireable to rename the package
completely, surely an alias is possible?

I am using Debian GNU/Linux testing with a Gnome desktop.

Thanks,
Pete
