CHEWS I am not sure on that one... I will check into that one next... I have successfully built and installed working fixed versions, so I know the upstream will not have the bug, IF they accept my proposed merge. the whole problem was in the lmms-common.install file. it was simply missing the line /usr/share/applications/ so, the desktop file was not getting installed.
I have found out more about fixing lmms in precise/quantal.... it seems that a backport from raring will likely be the easiest way to 'fix' the bug. So, hopefully they will accept the package into raring, and backport it to precise and quantal. if that doesn't happen, I will try to get them to upload this fix. ** Attachment added: "the bugfix" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lmms/+bug/863366/+attachment/3450588/+files/lmms-common.install -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863366 Title: lmms does not show in menus, launcher or dash; must launch from terminal or with run dialog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lmms/+bug/863366/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
