Version:            (using KDE Devel)

Hi,

when one installs or removes applications or say desktop file changed ( icons or whatever else ) kickoff won't update itself.

Actually one need to restart plasma to get kickoff to update his items.
 
(  asegio confirmed that on irc some days ago , I just forgot to report it )

Regards,

Gabriel

Same problem exists for the classic menu , shall I open an different bug report for it ?
Comment 2 Alex Merry 2007-12-23 14:30:16 UTC
No: fixing one will fix the other (they share the code for getting applications)
