Description:   Opened: 2007-07-19 14:13 0000
The desktop file is inconsistent and should use Categories=Application;Office;
instead of Categories=Application;Network; this can be confusing for people
moving away from another distro and moving to gentoo.

Reproducible: Always

I should note that both desktop files are incorrect.

[anarchy - icon]  cat mozilla-thunderbird.desktop 
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Mozilla Thunderbird
Comment=Mail & News Reader
Exec=/usr/bin/thunderbird
Icon=thunderbird-icon.png
Terminal=false

Categories=Application;Network;

# desktop-file-validate /usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop

/usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop: error: required key
"Encoding" not found
/usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop: warning: The 'Application'
category is not defined by the desktop entry specification.  Please use one of
"AudioVideo", "Audio", "Video", "Development", "Education", "Game", "Graphics",
"Network", "Office", "Settings", "System", "Utility" instead

Application is not a valid category, so no, it should be something like
Categories=Office;Email; instead [1] w/ Encoding=UTF-8 added. Regardless, how's
it confusing in Network I fail to see.

No. See bug 181999.

The seamonkey update has caused a missing icon in the gnome menu. I believe the
ebuild is incorrect so I am not sure if this should go here. Notice the changes
between seamonkey-1.1.2 & 1.1.3:

1.1.3:

        # Install icon and .desktop for menu entry
        doicon ${FILESDIR}/icon/${PN}-icon.png
        domenu ${FILESDIR}/icon/${PN}.desktop

1.1.2:

        # Install icon and .desktop for menu entry
        doins ${FILESDIR}/icon/${PN}.png
        doins ${FILESDIR}/icon/${PN}.desktop

All mozilla products fixed, closing.
