Under section "5.2. Specifying a ``no-menu entry''," the document says to create an empty file with the package name in $HOME/.menu/pakcage name. I tried this with the xbase-clients and python2.2 packages, and neither worked. This functionality works fine when putting empty files into /etc/menu. update-menus -v update-menus[7844]: update-menus run by user -- cannot determine if dpkg is locking /var/lib/dpkg/lock: assuming there is no lock update-menus[7844]: Dpkg not locking dpkg status area.

Hmm... after looking a bit more, it seems that the user .menu files are totally ignored. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: powerpc Kernel: Linux polo 2.4.20-powerpc #1 Wed Mar 26 12:47:45 EST 2003 ppc Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages menu depends on: ii dpkg 1.10.10 Package maintenance system for Deb ii libc6 2.3.1-17 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:3.3-2 GCC support library ii libstdc++5 1:3.3-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 -- no debconf information --------------------------------------- Received: (at 198173-done) by bugs.debian.org; 9 Apr 2004 21:23:07 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Apr 09 14:23:07 2004 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from 66-194-152-191.gen.twtelecom.net (pico.surpasshosting.com) [66.194.152.191] by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1BC3St-0007Aq-00; Fri, 09 Apr 2004 14:23:07 -0700 Received: from conr-adsl-cheney.txucom.net ([207.70.165.48] helo=calc) by pico.surpasshosting.com with esmtp (TLSv1:RC4-SHA:128) (Exim 4.24) id 1BC3TC-00062L-Vy for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Fri, 09 Apr 2004 17:23:27 -0400 Received: from ccheney by calc with local (Exim 4.31) id 1BC3ST-0002v8-1k for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Fri, 09 Apr 2004 16:22:41 -0500 Date: Fri, 9 Apr 2004 16:22:41 -0500 From: Chris Cheney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: kicker don't honor ~/.menu Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="yudcn1FV7Hsu/q59" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.5.1+cvs20040105i X-AntiAbuse: This header was added to track abuse, please include it with any abuse report X-AntiAbuse: Primary Hostname - pico.surpasshosting.com X-AntiAbuse: Original Domain - bugs.debian.org X-AntiAbuse: Originator/Caller UID/GID - [47 12] / [47 12] X-AntiAbuse: Sender Address Domain - cheney.cx Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-2.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00 autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 X-Spam-Level: X-CrossAssassin-Scores: 1 --yudcn1FV7Hsu/q59 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline This bug was fixed with the KDE 3.2 upload.
