Hello,
I'm building packages for a program which uses the line
"Categories=GNOME;Application;AudioVideo;"
in the .desktop file and get the error message
"ERROR: No sufficient Category definition: /usr/src/packages/BUILDROOT/nted-1.9.6-13.1.x86_64//usr/share/applications/ nted.desktop"
when I build for OpenSuse 11.1 or 11.2. In the build for 11.0 is all ok.
Well, in the build-log I get the warning, that "Application" is deprecated, so I update the .desktop file with
"# %suse_update_desktop_file -r %{name} GNOME AudioVideo"
to remove the entry "Application". But the error is not gone. So I found out that the values "GNOME" and "AudioVideo" are not accepted by OBS but as written in http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html "AudioVideo" and "GNOME" are valid values. So it would be great, when you can update the building rules that this values are accepted in the future.
This test is not about to check if the categories are valid. This test is about if you get assigned to a unique menu (and not be in plenty of them). GNOME category is almost useless here, because the menu is the same in all desktops. Check /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu to get an idea what other categories might needed to get a valid submenu.
Greetings and thanks, Carsten

PPS: In the build-log was written, that one should contact stbinner@suse.de in the case of this error. I tried it, but the email adress is not valid.
