Description Jie Luo 2006-04-22 05:04:45 UTC
The Help menu break in bonobo-browser program of libbonoboui package. It give followning message in the console: 

(bonobo-browser:28286): Bonobo-WARNING **: Unknown stock id 'gnome-stock-about' on /menu/Help/HelpAbout

And when I look into it source code, I find this.

static void
verb_HelpAbout (BonoboUIComponent *uic, void *data, const char *path)
{
    static const gchar *authors[] = {
        "Dan Siemon <dan@coverfire.com>",
        "Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@gnome-db.org>",
        "Patanjali Somayaji <patanjali@morelinux.com>",
        NULL
    };
#if 0
    GtkWidget *about;

    about = gnome_about_new (_("Bonobo Browser"), VERSION,
                 _("Copyright 2001, The GNOME Foundation"),
                 _("Bonobo component browser"),
                 authors,
                 NULL,
                 NULL,
                 NULL);
    gtk_widget_show (about);
#endif
}

I don't know why the About menu item was comment out use #if 0. If they don't want the About menu to shown, just remove it completely, or let it perform normally as it should (remove the #if and #endif).

I guess it got disabled because it's deprecated API.

bonobo-browser is a developer tool and I don't think there's much care for the UI. The .desktop in 2.14 hides it, so thats sufficient to me.

If you want this to be fixed, create a patch and file a bug upstream.
