Description Jason Rhinelander 2003-04-07 17:45:13 UTC
Emerging Evolution adds a KDE Evolution item by creating
/usr/share/applnk/Applications/evolution-1.3.desktop.  Gnome, trying to be
helpful, picks up on /usr/share/applnk and tries to add a menu for it, but it
contains broken images that look very ugly.

rm -rf /usr/share/applnk fixes the problem, but it would be very nice for us
non-KDE users if this file was _not_ created (or deleted during the ebuild
install phase, if evolution itself insists on creating it).

This affects all versions of evolution in portage (including the 1.3.1 devel
version).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge evolution
2. Start GNOME
3. Click the GNOME foot
Actual Results:  
I saw the ugly KDE menu (which I don't want at all) with a broken icon

Expected Results:  
/usr/share/applnk should not be created unless the 'kde' use flag is set.

USE=".... -kde ..."

fair comment. i'll only fix this on unstable ebuilds at the moment, that means 1.2.4 and 1.3.1.

we should also fix the broken kde icon in gnome-panel menus too.
