We have MenuLibre in our set of files (this is the xfce version of
alacart) and I just tried it out. I don't like the way it works :) It is
version 2.0.4 and may have gotten better. Anyway I just changed an icon
for one application and after that there was only this one application in
one of our menus :P This was in 14.04 LTS and I have yet to try it in V
or W. It may have been fixed :) But, when I looked at the file structure,
it creates a whole duplicate of the system menu (with studio.menu merged)
in ~/.config/menus and adds the changed file as a stub to that. This means
that any change we would make to the system file to fix a bug would not
help a user who had made any change in their menu at all.
I was hoping to use MenuLibre and remove the gnome Alacart, but it seems
this is not a good idea at this time. I need to talk to the author I
guess.
What I did learn... is that using <MergeFile type="parent"> may let us use
any layout we wish.... but may break some DEs because we may end up
specifying an app that they don't have. I will have to study this a bit
(a lot) more.
