http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21897

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: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

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.

It's not the expected behaviour. I expect wine to create a link and manage to
get it visible in the menu. You can't ask someone that are more or less
familiar with the gnome internal to play with the application.menu.

Wine must make it easier for new user.

If you removed the link yourself why are you asking Wine to restore it?

Closing. Not a bug. Expected behavior. User error.
