A fellow user who years ago frequented here suffered extreme visual impairment, which severely limits his ability to use his PC. At irregular intervals, I straighten out his problems, and do his release upgrades.
Somehow in his desire to reduce clutter on Kicker by deleting unused objects he has managed to eliminate a large number of items from his main menu. Office is totally absent, even though the entirety of LibreOffice is installed. Likewise, Internet, Utilities and System are also missing. Is there some simple XDG or other way to regenerate the menu that doesn't eliminate menu customization or impact Kicker?
https://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/linux_desktop_guides/kde_desktop_use... suggests
touch $ KDEDIR /share/services/update_ksycoca
which produces no such file or directory.
# man ksycoca No manual entry for ksycoca # man xdgmenu No manual entry for xdgmenu # man update-menus No manual entry for update-menus $ ls -l .*xdg* *xdg* ls: cannot access '.*xdg*': No such file or directory ls: cannot access '*xdg*': No such file or directory :(
After almost 2 days of no response here. I asked on the TDE users list. xdg-desktop-menu forceupdate and tdebuildsycoca both work. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
