Description Nicolas L. 2008-04-02 07:55:30 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

mdv bugreport : https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=26133

The KDE menu entry for GEdit doesn't show an icon and it has "Text Editor" as
its name (that should be its description) while it doesn't have a description
at
all. There is no way to know you're starting GEdit without first starting it.

I've done a full standard install with both KDE and GNOME installed, and the
entry for GEdit in  GNOME is just fine (although, on another matter,  the other
text editors don't follow this convention)

since gnome-panel is able to digg into kde own icons, I would suggest similar
feature for kde : trying to digg into gnome icons.

i have installed gedit. it's name shows up, the icon shows up, there's a description for it.

this is obviously a packaging bug or some such thing.

> trying to digg into gnome icons

we've shared an icon theming spec for a number of years and a common icon naming scheme since kde 4.0.

so ... we do.
