[Bug 21499] New: Gnome menus doesnt reappear if you re-install WINE

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21499

Summary: Gnome menus doesnt reappear if you re-install WINE
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Reinstalling wine after unistalling it,  doesn't reappear  the Gnome menus.

Steps that created that problem
I installed playonlinux (it made icons alright) ;

Purged it along with any installation of wine plus rm -rf ~/.wine (all icons
where removed - at the edit menu of the application bar there IS NOT any entry
that reads wine);

Installed wine following Ritchie's walkthrough, wine installed without any
problems but it didnt create any entry at the Gnome menu.

I searched the internet a bit for a possible solution and it seems at least one
had the same problem (

)

its a bit frustating, because if i manually add items they work, but they dont
get created by default

Wine doesn't create any Gnome menu entries for itself. That's part added by
your distro. And that's where you have to file this bug.

Besides playonlinux is not supported here.
