I'm noticing a very peculiar behavior trying to translate menus. First I tried using the example in /etc/menu-methods/translate_menus - changing "Apps" to "Programs". Using the "subtranslate" directive destroyed the subfolder hierarchy under Programs, so I tried using "substitute" instead. This correctly swapped Apps for Programs and left the subfolders intact - except for Net. Net, and only Net, remained under Apps. Its subfolder for Mozilla Components, however, moved properly to Programs. This happens both as root and as a user, and shows up both in the blackbox menu file and the GNOME folder. Changing Apps to Programs directly in the menu entries changes the location as would be expected.
Menu version is 2.1.8-2. I have no other modifications of menu-methods. At the moment, I don't even have anything in /etc/menu. Snippet from translate_menus: substitute section->section Apps/ Programs/ endtranslate And here are two entries from the debug output of update-menus: update-menus[24883]: Reading menuentryfile /usr/lib/menu/vim update-menus[24883]: translate: var[Apps/Editors] testing trans rule match for:Apps/ update-menus[24883]: ADDING: command="/usr/bin/vim" icon="/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/vim.xpm" longtitle="VIM, Vi IMproved" needs="text" package="vim" section="Programs/Editors" title="Vim" update-menus[24883]: Reading menuentryfile /usr/lib/menu/lynx update-menus[24883]: translate: var[Apps/Net] testing trans rule match for:Apps/ update-menus[24883]: ADDING: command="/usr/bin/lynx" hints="Web Browsers" needs="text" package="lynx" section="Apps/Net" title="Lynx" Both entries recognize the translate rule, but for lynx it appears to be silently ignored. Looks to me like the specific combo of "Apps/Net" is bumping into something coded into a script or executable somewhere and not getting read correctly. But maybe I'm just missing something... --Todd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
