Description Adrian Head 2003-12-16 06:49:39 UTC
If this is the new Gentoo standard then I appologise in advance.  I have tried to look through the Gentoo site to see if there was a standard but was unable to find one in advance.

I would expect that during emerge/install the Kile.desktop file should be copied to somewhere in the /usr/share/applnk directory tree were it seems all the other installed apps put their *.desktop files.

The Kile emerge puts its *.desktop file in /usr/share/applications/kde  where the KDE menu or the KAppFinder cannot find it.  To add Kile to the KDE menu the Kile.desktop file has to be copied to the /usr/share/applnk directory tree.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge kile

/usr/share/applications/kde is correct and will be supported by kde 3.2
