It seems that there is a related bug report http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=397057 which mentions a workaround. As far as I can tell, you have to remove and purge kdebase-data and then reinstall it. The whole problem seems to be caused by the absence of the file /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/kde-essential.menu -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
