[Bug 214294] New: susehelp is labeled as "KDE Help Center" even though it actually launches yelp.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214294 Summary: susehelp is labeled as "KDE Help Center" even though it actually launches yelp. Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Bug 114128: susehelp has been changed to run yelp instead of khelpcenter in a GNOME session, but the entry in the traditional GNOME menu is still labeled as "KDE Help Center". Maybe it should be neutral and identify itself just as "Help Center". -- 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.

This is strange: - There is /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/Help.desktop from kdebase3 with "Name=Help", "Exec=khelpcenter", "OnlyShowIn=KDE" and translations; - There is /etc/opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/Help.desktop from kdebase3-SuSE with "Name=KDE Help Center", "Exec=susehelp", no "OnlyShowIn" and no translations. Isn't it a little bit illogical that the copy which has "Exec=susehelp" is called "Name=KDE Help Center" (although susehelp can launch either khelpcenter or yelp) and the copy which has "Exec=khelpcenter" is called "Name=Help" (although khelpcenter is always khelpcenter)? -- 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.

It's of general usefulness even for GNOME-only installations. -- 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=214294 ------- Comment #5 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-11-07 06:22 MST ------- There are two instances of this entry in the traditional menu (but not the new gnome-main-menu). One of them comes from gnome-panel-help-item.patch: - panel_menu_items_append_from_desktop (menu, "yelp.desktop", NULL); + panel_menu_items_append_from_desktop (menu, "/etc/opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/Help.desktop", NULL); I do not know where the other one comes from. -- 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=214294 ------- Comment #8 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-11-08 00:59 MST ------- Dropping this patch has a side-effect: yelp is now used directly, not through susehelp because yelp.desktop contains "Exec=yelp". This means that the settings from /etc/sysconfig/susehelp are no longer read and used. An idea how to fix it is replacing "Exec=yelp" with "Exec=gnome-help" in yelp.desktop: This should be safe because gnome-help is a symlink to susehelp which in turn calls yelp in the SUSE packages and a symlink to yelp in vanilla yelp. So it should do "the right thing" in all cases. -- 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=214294 ------- Comment #9 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-11-08 03:58 MST ------- I've just found out that the new gnome-main-menu also uses yelp.desktop. This means that dropping gnome-panel-help-item.patch was right in order do have consistency between the two menus. But the non-usage of susehelp is still something to think about. yelp-2.13.5-use-susehelp.patch indicates the intention was that it should be used. But it doesn't cover the case where yelp is called through its .desktop file. -- 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=214294 ------- Comment #10 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-11-13 18:10 MST ------- The second instance appears at the toplevel because it has X-SuSE-Core in it and this is configured in /etc/xgd/menus to be at the top level. I guess that this should be completely hidden in a GNOME session, it is unnecessary because both the traditional and the new GNOME main menu already have a hard-coded entry point to the help system. I will file a separate report against kdebase3-SuSE for that. -- 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.

Now there is a better plan for help URIs upstream, and rarian, we should get with that. -- 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.
