For >=fluxbox-0.9.13, the fluxbox guide should be advocating the use of "fluxbox-generate_menu -is -ds" rather than menumaker.
Ok, explanation as requested: fbgm is patched by me to properly support Gentoo directory layouts (actually, most of these patches got merged by upstream already). menumaker doesn't know about some of the smarter layouts that we use, so the menus it generates will be missing certain things. The other option would be to patch menumaker, but I loathe python so I'm not going to do it.
wow. i feel bad for the translators. this doc has changed quite a bit lately. anyway, i'm working on a patch now
Created attachment 58932 [details, diff] fluxbox-config.xml.diff as it says in the comment in the patch, this will need to be updated when 0.9.13 becomes stable in portage. that will, however, be a minor patch. this should fix the issue...
Created attachment 58933 [details, diff] fluxbox-config.xml.diff this one should fix the problems ciaranm mentioned on irc
Created attachment 58934 [details, diff] fluxbox-config.xml.diff appologies for all the patches. i'm somewhat sleepy and slightly out of it :-P in any case, this should fix the issues, and be more clear on the whole issue.
ok, since there were no complains about the changes to the fluxbox guide, i'll commit them this evening. also, there is one typo (no need for another separate patch): s/keywork/keyword
ok, commited. thanks to ciaranm for pointing out the problem and to smithj for including it into the guide.
