Hello folks,
We, FreeBSD GNOME Team, have successed to move GNOME from X11BASE
to LOCALBASE. There are three files that are conflict between KDE
and GNOME. The two files that need to be fix in the KDE side and
another file that is need to be fix both in the GNOME and KDE
sides.

etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu:
=============================================
GNOME and KDE teams will have to figure how to solve this problem.
Take the looks at the other Linux distros or so would be a good
start. If you have any good suggest, let us know.
We might need to create a small port that just handles conflicting
files such as this one. applications.menu is not huge, and should be
interchangeable between GNOME and KDE.
How different are the versions installed by Gnome & KDE?
But yes, possibly we need an 'xdg-menu' port to cover such files.
mezz could probably better answer this. They should be comparable since
we're using the same xdg stuff.

http://people.freebsd.org/~mezz/menu/
Both KDE and GNOME applications.menu are in ~mezz/menu/, so you can
compare the difference. We can either merge both of applications.menu
into one or try to rename applications.menu to
(kde|gnome)-applications.menu. I am not sure about <MergeFile>
stuff...so.. What I have in my mind is something like this below, but I
have no idea if it will working. If that don't work, then do either
merge into one or hack all apps for rename of applications.menu.
It doesn't work, I tried to play with it for about two hours and still no
luck with <MergeFile>. Either I need to learn more or it is limited.
However, it looks like that leave us two choices:
1) Rename both of applications.menu and hack
in the ports to teach them about the new
name.
2) Create our own applications.menu that will
working for the general desktop.
Cheers,
Mezz
