[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#580290: xfce: No "Debian" application menu

[Curt Howland]

Package: xfce4
Version: 4.6.1.3
Severity: important
File: xfce
Tags: squeeze


The xfce menu does not include any entry for the all-inclusive Debian
application menu. This seems new to Squeeze, since Lenny has such an
entry.

This severely impacts the usability of xfce, since there are lots of
applications installed that don't show up in the xfce-specific menus.

I saw the wishlist bug #489441, but this is not a complete change to
the menu structure. Only an inclusion of what has made Debian one of
the best distributions of all: Desktop agnosticism.
