I can see it in the gnome_basis pattern as "Recommended". Is it maybe missing from the media? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Evince is installed, but it has no entry in the menu and can't be found through the application browser. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Old and annoying bug, should be finally fixed some time. We need to reassign this back to the GNOME maintainers and rename it accordingly (or create a new one). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220232 ------- Comment #6 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-11-12 11:01 MST ------- This is not a bug at all. /opt/gnome/share/applications/evince.desktop contains: NoDisplay=true This means that the developers have explicitly marked the menu entry as "don't display". Who knows why, but I have verified that this is not from a SUSE patch. It's an upstream decision. Upstream report: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312399 In the duplicates you can see that many people disagree, yet still the rationale is "evince is just a viewer". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I have re-applied the patch and submitted it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
