The menu system will only install entries in a Debian/ directory in xdg-aware desktop environments, where users are not likely to look, and only if the menu-xdg package is installed. You could have your package depend on the menu-xdg package, but I would recommend using desktop files in addition to menu files. -Daniel Milstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
