--- Comment #28 from [email protected] --- After some serious investigation I think I've found a workaround that seems to have fixed my personal issue, at least until I ever use kmenuedit again. Using Kfind I did a deep search and discovered that all the app entries I deleted using kmenuedit had their desktop files moved to ~/.local/share/kglobalaccel. Moving or deleting those desktop files from that folder removed the entries from the kcm_keys "Applications" section. However, interestingly they were then suddenly showing up further down in the "System Services" section. After some more digging the only mentions I could find of some of those applications on my entire system were in the applications-kmenuedit.menu file. Carefully deleting the remaining mentions of those files there somehow removed them from kcm_keys altogether. This suggests to me, as far as the 'dummy application entries' bug goes, this may be more of a kmenuedit bug than kcm_keys. Why does deleting entries send desktop files to the kglobalaccel folder? Then again, why did mere mentions of those applications in applications-kmenuedit.menu cause those entries to show up in kcm_keys, but only if they were previously moved to kglobalaccel. It's a strange cascade of issues to be sure. Maybe the simplest investigation would be the first question of why those desktop files get moved to kglobalaccel in the first place. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
