If you want to define new menu categories, put a file ending with .menu in /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/. It should be read in by any of the default .menu files that call DefaultMergeDirs. I'm pretty sure this will only let you define new menus, and not override existing ones. But it sounds to me like you're editing a lot of files that will most likely be replaced next time you get an update to the gnome-menus package. I define extra menu entries and then define XDG_DATA_DIR to a network volume to provide menu entries for our 3rd-party licensed software. Just be aware that if you point XDG_DATA_DIR to a directory that is exists but you aren't permitted to read will cause Gnome 3 to crash in CentOS7.

This is ACTUALLY the whole reason ENTERPRISE distros exist. Backporting of security and bug fixes is done to make the released version more stable and more secure over the lifetime of the distro so that custom software that you pay to be written does not become obsolete with an API/ABI change of a component. See this link about backporting by Red Hat: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/backporting So, for almost any server related services (IPA, LDAP, EMail, httpd, samba, etc., etc., ... ), there will likely not be an upgrade of the service within the main distribution. CentOS-6 will most likely always have httpd version 2.2.15-XX (where XX will change, but not 2.2.15). CentOS-7 will have version 2.4.6-XX of httpd. If you want server services always moving to the latest and greatest, CentOS is the distribution you are looking for. That is Fedora (if you want a Red Hat family equivalent).

I can't comment on the logic .. I build these, I don't write them :D But, one thing to check is the spec file for the package that provides the .desktop file to ensure it is configured as noreplace. If it is not, you need to back up your custom files as they will replaced with an upgrade. You can find the actual package with : rpm -q --whatprovides once you know the rpm, you can find the Source RPM (SRPM) used to build it like this: rpm -qi once you know the Source RPM name, you can find the spec file here: https://git.centos.org/summary/rpms!kernel (substitute the SRPM name for kernel) Then click on the 'c7' branch link, and on the next screen, click the 'tree' link. That should take you to a screen with SPECS/ and SOURCES/ .. click SPECS/ and then the file name of the spec file. That will open up the actual spec file used to build the RPM that contains the desktop file. For example, there are several .desktop files defineed in the gnome-shell SRPM, and they would be replaced: https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms!gnome-shell/580c0560105a0f018b62a7e0bdf42eca9b9032f1/SPECS!gnome-shell.spec That is, they are not set to config(noreplace). The best thing to do is to keep a copy of all of your modified .desktop files somewhere else and you can copy them back in if necessary after an update.
