no, just like previous releases didn't do it since 2.26 (iirc). Please read the einfo message from older gnome-menus. I do not understand. Should this bug be filled upstream? Or against another ebuild? Upgrading from GNOME 2 to GNOME 3, with a working GNOME 2 desktop, gnome-shell crashes. It is because of the /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu file being missing. You are telling me I should see the einfo message from *previous* versions of gnome-menus? This should work when installing GNOME 3 for the first time. Currently, it does not. Maybe my summary, title or ebuild attribution is incorrect, but *there is a bug*. Please direct me where or to what I should fill it. The bug is not that applications.menu is missing since it is named gnome-applications.menu on purpose and this is the case since gnome 2.26. I have not witnessed this problem while upgrading and so do other people that are testing it in gnome overlay. Are you using gdm to start gnome ?

And it worked for me up until GNOME 2.32. > I have not witnessed this problem while upgrading and so do other people > that are testing it in gnome overlay. Are you using gdm to start gnome ? No, it doesn't work for me: it hangs without doing anything after I enter my password. I haven't reported it because I still don't investigate it further. I'm starting GNOME with startx, having "exec gnome-session" in my ~/.xinitrc. Now I see that I need to set the XDG_MENU_PREFIX environment variable so it works. You're right: the bug is invalid. Sorry for the noise, and thanks. (In reply to comment #4) [...] > Now I see that I need to set the XDG_MENU_PREFIX environment variable so it > works. You're right: the bug is invalid. beware that you might need other things, like consolekit, ... In general you should make sure to run everything that is under /etc/X11/xinitrc.d/ > Sorry for the noise, and thanks. No problem. |
