I must admit I'm with Christopher on this one, if the package is installed it's icon should be included in the menu. Asking a user of a GUI to edit a txt file before they see the icons sounds like crazyness.. That said the .desktop files have actually been moved into a hplip-gui package, so if you want the icons you can install the hplip-gui package and if you don't want the icons then you can just install the hplip package. So Christopher, installing hplip-gui may solve your icon issue. Joss, if hplip is deemed worthy of the default installation, then why wouldn't a user want the icons shown? Mark
