There is no menu entry for Firefox. I'm not sure if this should be against Package: firefox or the firefox-gnome-support package, but the latter seemed more logical.

I have Apps/Net/Firefox, but I don't know the first thing about
gnome; is there a firefox "Debian Menu" entry?

Ah, yes there is. It just doesn't show up under "Internet", in the gnome menu.

It does, here... does it happen with a new user ?

Mike

Hmm, no. I created a new user and logged in as that user, and it showed up in the menu. It is definately not in my menu still.
You may have removed it somehow from your menu...

Mike

It's quite possible, however I generally don't muck around with the menus. Where can I look? I'm afraid that I'm not very familiar with the menuing system. can I do a "dpkg -L" and see if the menu file is missing?
It is /usr/share/menu/firefox on recent versions, perhaps
/usr/lib/menu/firefox on slightly older versions; but there are ways
of changing the local menus, and gnome probably has even another layer
of ways of doing it, too.

The firefox menu file exists in /usr/share/menu/firefox (not in /usr/lib/menu, but I'm running current etch). Here is what it contains:
?package(firefox):needs="x11" section="Apps/Net" \
       title="Firefox" \
       icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.xpm" \
       command="firefox" hints="Web Browsers"

It looks very similar to the entry for "epiphany-browser", which is working.

I right-clicked on the gnome menu in the panel, and clicked on "Edit Menus", but there was no firefox menu item for me to check or uncheck in the "Internet" submenu. Is there some kind of override in gconf somewhere? I tried searching, but the only thing that I could find were some "history-gnome-run" entries and some "url-handlers" in ~/.gconf/%gconf-tree.xml.

I also "sudo aptitude purge firefox firefox-gnome-support" then re-installed, but this did not seem to help. I vaguely remember there is some command to rebuild the menus. I couldn't find it after 5 minutes of googling; does anyone remember what it is?

Jason
