What is that file, KControl_NoDisplay.desktop, supposed to do? What differs it
from the normal one is it has NoDisplay=true, and no category, AFAICT. This
is the relevant Makefile.am snippet:
xdg_apps_DATA = KControl.desktop
install-data-local: KControl_NoDisplay.desktop
$(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)
$(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/KControl_NoDisplay.desktop
$(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/KControl.desktop
@-rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)/kinfocenter
$(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)
@$(LN_S) kcontrol $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)/kinfocenter
$(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/System
$(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/kinfocenter.desktop
$(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/System/
Is this a remnant from hacking the "core" menu category, when it didn't exist?
Why have it come alive only on George's setup? ("Users, don't poke it..")
Cheers,
Frans
