But it fails here.

Ok, so this is a bug in the KOrganizer and Kontact. They should go under PIM, 
i believe.

I have it in /opt/kde3/share/desktop-directories and it has "NoDisplay=true". 
But I also have a /opt/kde3/share/applnk/Settings and it contains the 
*.desktop files for control center items. And this was installed when I did a 
make install after removing the applnk directory.
I only have the directory structure without the *.desktop files in the 
$KDEHOME. But as I said, I also removed the local applnk before reporting, 
and now this is there.

Right now I have only one in 
/opt/kde3/share/applnk/Settings/CDBakeOven/.directory, but it was installed 
only recently, after I reported the bug. If I remove the Settings menu in the 
Menu Editor, the .directory is created in the local applnk/Settings 
directory, and it has:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=
NoDisplay=true

The Settings-Module has disappeared, but I have two Settings menu now, one 
containing the control center items, and one is the old Settings menu with 3 
items (Configure Panel, Print Manager, Control Center).
