I don't know the specifics of any of them, so perhaps I'm saying something just stupid. But shouldn't RPM Groups be just the same (or something really similar) that the categories from the menu-spec specification ( http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Package_Conventions/Desktop_Menu )?
Only a subset of packages match a menu entry. There's probably no place in menus for libraries, non-interactive command line tools etc.
But the idea of syncing desktop categories and packages is interesting. Think of

I was thinking that the concept of hierarchic groups was too strict and that we would be better off with a tag cloud, but the menu connection gives it some validity back. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
