No menu entry in xfce #785

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Users of the different desktop environments (as example Xfce) need to manually 
edit a ganttproject.desktop file in order to become a menu entry. Please, 
remove a line "OnlyShowIn=Gnome;KDE;Unity" from 
/usr/share/applications/ganttproject.desktop in distribution.

As a workaround, I made a copy of ganttproject.desktop in 
~/.local/share/applications/ and removed the OnlyShowIn= line. This made it 
show up correctly.

This issue was reported before in issue 366; however, only Unity was fixed (by 
adding it to the OnlyShowIn= line). ganttproject is not specific to a 
particular desktop and therefore an OnlyShowIn= line is not appropriate.

The ganttproject.desktop file appears to be generated from 
ganttproject-builder/build-deb.xml.

Hi, This issue still exists.

Ganttproject: ganttproject_2.8.3-r2088-1_all.deb

Desktop Environment: Xfce 4.12.2 (Linux Lite 3.2, which is based on Ubuntu 16.04)

Are there any plans to get this fixed? If that line needs to stay adding "XFCE" would solve it.

Would be highly appreciated. Thanks for your consideration
