Description Evandro Giovanini 2005-12-31 03:58:16 UTC 
Gucharmap is assigned to two categories in the Applications menu, Accessibility
abd Accessories. There's a guideline in the GNOME HIG to assign an application
to only one category.

The link:
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/desktop-integration.html#desktop-application-menu

In my opinion it should remain only in the Accessories menu.


Other information:
gucharmap 1.4.4-cvs, from a few hours ago. :)

We recently changed the category for gucharmap to Utility;Accessibility.  One of the entries that you see is probably from the default installation on the system, the other one from the CVS version you installed...
Comment 2 Evandro Giovanini 2006-01-02 02:22:55 UTC 
Actually the only GNOME installation in this particular system is from jhbuild, built under /opt/gnome2. It's the gnome-2.14 moduleset minus the accessibility related modules.

evandro@debian:~$ dpkg -l | grep gtk
evandro@debian:~$

;)

There are two entries on the menu, one under Accessibility and one under Accessories, so gucharmap is assigned to two categories which the HIG recommends against. IMO it should only be assigned to the Accessories category, like the old .desktop did.
