Description eekaikko 2003-04-11 10:54:31 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I recently had to re-install my debian but I preserved my .kde directory.
Menu now has many entries which do not exist. Maybe kappfinder could check all entries and propose to remove the non-existing? After all, it is called "Menu updating tool", not just "Menu adding tool" :)

Another option would be to add a tool for this to KDE Menu Editor, but I won't make  a new report about that for now.

Really good idea cause often I have menu parts with removed software!
Comment 2 Paulo Fidalgo 2004-01-23 19:54:08 UTC
This is another good idea... because who needs a meny entry for a non-existent application?
And it seems to be one easy feature to implement... sorry if I'm wrong.

I've checked the new version on kde 3.4 and this is still missing...
Is this app being maintained? this is an essencial feature since we all hate to have menu entries 
lying around...

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug.
