hello
when updating a rpm package, some files are kept under the ".sav"
extension. So the .kdelnk files (which describe the menu entries) are
duplicated - please run:
rm -f `find /opt/kde/share/applnk -name *.kdelnk.rpmsave -print`
and restart the window manager (K->panel->restart). It should work.
Note that this little script has been put in the new kdebase package
(in %postinst section) and I wonder why it does not seem to work.. :-/
Greets,
Gael.
