Just as a note on this one, I found that a bug is already filed for the most infamous case, Software Update / Software Updates: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=702772 and has been passed on to upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649823 I hope Richard will be able to get to that soon. That leaves terminal / Terminal, and all the system-config-* vs. control-center components (things like Date & Time are identical between the two). That seems a larger problem than just the menu entries, though. There's kind of a demarcation question here; GNOME seems to have decided various settings should be controlled by the desktop, and Fedora probably needs to decide where it stands on that, whether all our other desktop environments agree, and how to deal with overlapping tools for such settings from all standpoints, not just menu entries. Where we agree that something should be handed off from s-c-* to desktop control, we should check on the current status of what the s-c-* app is capable of and whether the GNOME app can do all the same stuff, and whether the other desktops make it possible to deal with the same settings, I guess. (I wonder if it might be good for there to be a cross-desktop list within Fedora, for things that concern all desktop environments? This cross-posting gets unwieldy.) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
