Description Luc Menut 2008-08-31 00:39:33 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

System Settings and all the applications defined to appear in the Computer tab of Kickoff are not displayed in the classical menu.
see http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=168043 (comment 13, 14 & 15), the bug in systemsettings.desktop is fixed by http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=849965, but systemsettings is still not displayed in classic menu.

As the classical menu uses the Application tab of Kickoff, I think that this change http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=809648 prevents these applications to appear in the classical menu.

The patch in attachment tries to manage this feature (the Applications tab ignores any apps that are configured to appear in the System tab) with SystemApplicationPolicy in the same way that it is done for DuplicatePolicy; ShowSystemOnlyPolicy is used for Kickoff (so no change) and ShowApplicationAndSystemPolicy is used for simpleapplet so that all the applications are displayed in the classical menu.
I'm not a kde developper, so please, could you review this patch, and apply it if it is OK, and there isn't any side effects.
