Guys it is at 2.1.3! Why are we still at 13.04.17??? ;)
Kete, this is the scheme of the "trunk" versions. See https://launchpad.net/menulibre/+series
In src_compile() I see: No menu prefix found, MenuLibre will not function properly. and after installing (2.0.7) I get: $ menulibre /usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/menulibre/MenuEditor.py:28: PyGIWarning: GMenu was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('GMenu', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded. from gi.repository import GdkPixbuf, Gio, GLib, GMenu, Gtk No menu prefix found, MenuLibre will not function properly.

This workaround does not work around anything: # ls -l /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Aug 29 07:36 /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu -> gnome-applications.menu
(Stable) 2.0.7 and (unstable) 2.1.3 are in the tree. Perhaps someone would like to figure out what is required to get these running properly.
Please fix the versioning as the portage thinks that the highest version is 13.04.17!
Version 2.0.7 is working here on an XFCE DE properly. In case of the error, one should set the variable $XDG_MENU_PREFIX to a value. From https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/ar01s02.html : "$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/menus/${XDG_MENU_PREFIX}applications.menu This file contains the XML definition of the main application menu layout. The first file found in the search path should be used; other files are ignored. This implies that if the user has their own ${XDG_MENU_PREFIX}applications.menu, it replaces the system wide one. (Though the user's menu may explicitly merge the system wide one.) Systems that offer multiple desktop environments and that want to use distinct menu layouts in the different environments can use differently prefixed .menu files. In this case the $XDG_MENU_PREFIX environment variable must be set by the system to reflect the .menu file that is being used. For example if a system contains both the GNOME and the KDE desktop environments it can decide to use gnome-applications.menu as the menu layout in GNOME sessions and kde-applications.menu as the menu layout in KDE sessions. To correctly reflect this, it should set the $XDG_MENU_PREFIX environment variable to "gnome-" respectively "kde-". Implementations may chose to use .menu files with other names for tasks or menus other than the main application menu. Such usage is not covered by this specification.

Yes, of course masking can do the job, but is it a proper solution? I thought it will be a slotted package with declared conflict between the slots.
