Description Chris Lahey 2005-03-02 22:03:19 UTC
The LegacyDir code is ignoring the file .hidden/.directory.  It does have a Type
and a Name.  It's ignoring both NoDisplay and Name.

As regards .hidden files:

Okay, committed a fix which fixes a bug with picking up the .directory in
subdirs of the <LegacyDir>

Fix will be in 2.10.1:

2005-03-08  Mark McLoughlin  <mark@skynet.ie>

        Fix for bug #169031 - .directory files in subdirs of
        <LegacyDir> not getting pulled in.

        * libmenu/menu-tree.c:
        (add_menu_for_legacy_dir): put the relative path
        from the <LegacyDir> into the generated <Directory>
        rather than just ".directory"


File new bugs for other issues, but please include a logfile generated from
running MENU_VERBOSE=1 gnome-menu-spec-test which shows the problem you're
trying to describe.
