reassign 643565 gnome-menus
affects 643564 akregator
thanks

Hi

This is unfortunately because the Debian Gnome maintainers have decided to
blacklist a random collection of nice apps to show up in Gnome's menu. I've
reassigned your bug to the package doing the blacklist in hope they one day
will drop the blacklist.

As soon as KDE, Java and hplip maintainers fix their desktop entries to
add appropriate NoDisplay and OnlyShowIn fields, we’d be happy to drop
that hack.

I'm not sure how a OnlyShowIn=KDE for akregator would have prevented the user
from filing a bug about not being able to see Akregator in the Gnome menu.

If you have specific requests for apps that shouldn't be shown in Gnome, then
let us discuss that.

I unfortunately think that it will be hard to reach a proper agreement, since
we seem to fundamentally disagree wether or not users should be allowed to
choose to use the apps they have installed. And I'm not sure I get the
criteria for getting blacklisted.

For example. Graphical email clients:
KMail has a desktop file is blacklisted and doesn't have a OnlyShowIn

Evolution has a desktop file and is not blacklisted and doesn't have a
OnlyShowIn

Claws-mail has a desktop file and is not blacklisted and doesn't have a
OnlyShowIn

Icedove has a desktop file and is not blacklisted and doesn't have a
OnlyShowIn

I don't fully get the pattern for what to - or not - blacklist, and I do think
that in several cases the KDE default apps is better than the Gnome similar
ones, and vice versa. I really think we are doing our users a disfavour by not
allowing them to easy access the applications they have chosen to install.

/Sune

found akregator on /etc/gnome/menus.blacklist with gnome-menus-3.10.1-1.

I don't know what is the criteria to blacklist.
