Yes, it is a known problem. However for fluxbox, /usr/share/doc/fluxbox/README.Debian read: Currently, fluxbox supports the debian menu system, -however-, to use user-menus, you need to alter the ~/.fluxbox/init file. and /etc/X11/fluxbox/system.fluxbox-menu read: # to use your own menu, copy this to ~/.fluxbox/menu, then edit # ~/.fluxbox/init and change the session.menuFile path to # ~/.fluxbox/menu so I would suggest you try to follow these instructions. If it does not work or if the process should be improved, please issue a separate bugreport against the fluxbox package. > I made a test with a brand new user so that his local config files were > totally clean and created the file > ~/.menu/aterm-perso > containing the following lines > ?package(aterm):needs="X11" section="/Eddy/Terminal/"\ > title="Eddyterm" command="/usr/bin/aterm" > After > update-menus > the menu Eddy -> Terminal -> Eddyterm > appears in the Debian menu for wmaker > and kde but not for gnome nor > fluxbox. > > I know the section name is "unofficial" > but according to the doc it > should be ok. Yes, it should work. The requirement to use "official" sections is only meant for official Debian packages. If you use GNOME, you might be interested to test the solution I proposed in <http://lists.debian.org/debian-gtk-gnome/2004/12/msg00046.html>. Tell me if that work for you.
