           Summary: Application Launcher Does Not Refresh on Package Install
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: martin.fitzpatrick gmail com


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When installing new packages the Application Launcher menu does not refresh with the new applications until KDE restart, or in a new instance of the Launcher menu. Makes it difficult to use recently added applications (e.g. I installed OpenOffice and it will not appear until KDE restarted / create a dummy launcher on the desktop).

Application Launcher should refresh / watch the installed application list.
