Hello all,
I am trying to pack a source package into rpm. I need to include the
shortcut for my software in the Applications --> Office Menu. I am
using FC-4 and GNOME-2.10 . I have included the 'Group' macro in the
SPEC file with value: "Applications/Productivity". But after
installing it I couldn't get the icon in the Applications menu. Is
this the right way to attain this? If not please give me some
guidelines.
TIA,
regards
Manilal
The spec file for my rpm is as follows:
%define nila_dir %{_datadir}/%{name}
