Description Ng, Wey-Han 2005-04-08 08:18:49 UTC

the item "Applications|Others|Emacs" points to /usr/bin/emacs-21 while there is not emacs-21 in that location.

Listing in /usr/bin for em* shows:

# ls -1 /usr/bin/em*
/usr/bin/emacs
/usr/bin/emacs.emacs-21
/usr/bin/emacsclient
/usr/bin/emacsclient.emacs-21
/usr/bin/emerge
#

The content of the desktop file for gnome Applications:
# cat /usr/share/gnome/apps/Application/emacs-21.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=GNU Emacs 21
Comment=Emacs is the extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor.
Icon=gnome-emacs.png
Terminal=0
Type=Application
Exec=/usr/bin/emacs-21

Note where the Exec line is pointing to.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.

Comment 1 Ng, Wey-Han 2005-04-08 08:27:39 UTC
