Description Mike 2008-01-09 15:41:51 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

If I type into the kickoff search box 'konsol' then it displays 2 items

- Konsole
- KonsoleKalendar

KonsoleKalendar is for command line only so it should not be in the gui searchbox, alternatively it could launch inside a new konsole window but this is probably not what people want.
Comment 1 Allen Winter 2008-01-11 00:58:02 UTC 
The konsolekalendar.desktop file has the line
NoDisplay=true

according the the spec at http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html, NoDisplay means "this application exists, but don't display it in the menus".

Additionally, this is the same konsolekalendar.desktop file I've had for years and it never showed up the menus before, to my knowledge.

So.. I claim this is a kickoff bug.
Comment 2 Mike 2008-01-11 01:16:44 UTC 
kfmclient also has NoDisplay in its desktop file but it does not show in the menu so maybe the problem is somewhere else?
