From: Mark Donahue <mark_donahue@mac.com> To: community-en@altlinux.org Subject: [Comm-en] Help!!! Menudrake killed my KDE menu! Date: Wed, 14 Jul 2004 23:20:42 +0200 Message-ID: <5760050.1089840042589.JavaMail.mark_donahue@mac.com> (raw) Hello all, Big problem today. I figured I would finally tackle reorganising the menu structure in KDE to something that makes a bit more sense to me. I ran Menudrake from the KDE menu, saved the new settings... and nothing happened. Next I entered the menu configuration (still Menudrake, of course) via the Alt Linux Control Center. This time, when I saved, all my KDE menus disappeared! Is there a way to fix the situation without reinstalling KDE (I've put quite a bit of work into getting everything to work the way I want)? Here is the error output when I tried running update-menus from the console (as root). I found the same error text in the Russian mailing list- but I don't read any Russian, sorry. Thanks for any help, Mark [root@mark-s /]# update-menus -n -v Update-menus[4276]: Dpkg not locking dpkg status area. Good. Update-menus[4276]: Reading installed packages...
