Package: wmaker

After upgrading from 0.95.8-1 to 0.95.8-2, the menu seems to have lost
the vast majority of my applications.

~/.xsession-errors tells me the following:

/usr/lib/WindowMaker/wmaker(configureMenu(rootmenu.c:1513)): warning: using default menu 
file "/usr/share/WindowMaker/menu" as the menu referenced in WMRootMenu could 
not be found
/usr/lib/WindowMaker/wmaker(WMReadPropListFromFile(proplist.c:1548)): warning: 
syntax error in file /usr/share/WindowMaker/menu, line 1: extra data after end 
of property list

Not that /usr/share/WindowMaker/menu actually contains reference to the
missing applications anyway.

I suspect that whatever the "fix" was for bug 868431 somehow broke
things.

Thanks for your report!

The goal was to replace the old Debian menu with a new freedesktop.org-like menu, but obviously something isn't working!

What are the contents of your ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu and /etc/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu?

Does the file /usr/share/WindowMaker/menu.hook exist? Is it a symbolic link to /etc/GNUstep/Defaults/plmenu.Debian? (For some reason, they're not showing up in the filelist [1], even though they ought to...)

Thanks again!
Doug
