Description Raul Moratalla 2004-06-01 01:11:02 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:                Linux

I have tested this bug on mi fedora core 2 system and I know that others users have the same problem.The way to reproduce the problem is:
Start Gnome and change the icons of your theme. Exit Gnome.
Start kde and if you try to edit your customized (add or delete some item) menu you'll see that if you save the changes, there is no effect. There is effect if you change the icon of an application, but no more.
The way to solve this is to delete the folders .config and .local (I think that with .config will be proud) and now you can change if you restart kde.
There are more users with this problems as you can see in Fedora core mailing-list.

Can you make a tarbal of your .config directory and attach it to this bugreport once you notice that kmenuedit won't save changes?

Corret .config folder

This is the correct .config folder before the bug.

Bad .config folder

This is my menu that I can't edit, well, I can save changes of description or
icons, but I can't add or delete any item. I save the changes but there are no
effect.
