Seb, no problems. The upload I tried to make was just for the above two patches. I put the first one into the debian/patches directory as 11_desktop_notifications.patch and the second one was simply applied (to the gnomevfs patch). I should have known it wasn't going to work. :-/ I can send you

The only way to reliably fix this is to fix the freedesktop specification. The underlying problem is that there is no clean way that meets the specification to override the NoDisplay attribute of the .desktop file without copying the whole file to the user's applications directory. Matthias's sug

And here is another patch, which fixes the handling of .desktop files with a space in their name (amongst other uri-encodable characters). The problem was that gnomvfs converts spaces to %20 encoding. I've fixed this by using gnomevfs's helper functions to do the encoding and decoding. ** Attachm

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 64264 *** I've marked this as a dup now, since this behaviour was caused by a bug in gnome-menus (also now with patch). The above patch works because I changed the semantics of a drag-and-drop to perform a "move" operation, which doesn't create any new .desktop

BTW, to recreate the menus, simply remove the personalised menu file like so: $ rm -f ~/.config/menus/applications.menu And rerun alacarte: $ alacarte It will hopefully recreate your menus from the system-wide defaults. If the system-wide defaults are broken too, try reinstalling the gnome- me

Perhaps this is an issue with disk space? Can the original poster confirm if there was limited available disk space when running alacarte? The information I can glean from the stack trace is that the menu file (normally at ~/.config/menus/applications.menu) existed but was empty (already). Alaca
