Summary: Link created by wine are not display if it's been deleted once Product: Wine Version: 1.1.39 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: ikus060@gmail.com
It's seams wine doesn't edit the application.menu file to ensure the menu item created are displayed. If for some reason you delete the menu item from a tool like alacarte, you're not able to see those item never again.
Step to reproduce : 1. Install an application which create a link in the application menu. e.g.: DVDFab6 2. Ensure the link is properly created. 3. Uninstall DVDFab6 4. The menu item is not remove by the uninstall opperation, so use 'alacarte' to remove the item. 5. Reinstall DVDFab6 6. Notice the menu item doesn't appear in the menu or in alacarte.
Workarround :
To make it appear again, wine need to remove the <delete/> tag in the application.menu othersiwe it's doesn't appear.
