Bug Description
Binary package hint: k3b
I had installed K3b to my Gnome DE in 7.04 some months ago and upgraded to Gutsy beta using update manager. Now all the sudden in Gutsy Gnome I have a new menu called other and it contains 3 kcmshell settings.
Name: Input Actions, command: kcmshell khotkeys
Name: Keyboard, command: kcmshell keyboard
Name: Keyboard Layout, command: kcmshell keyboard_layout
The menu entries offer no clue to the fact that they are part of KDE unless you go and do research on them. Because there is no obvious KDE connection I think users will be confused and complain about why they are not not working seamlessly in Gnome or why they are not in System/Preferences.
Update, this is still happening for me. I have a 7.10 installed and not upgrade. January 19, 2008
I just did a fresh install of Gutsy beta onto my computer. After loging in for the first time and allowing update manager to do the updates and restarting the computer, I installed K3b and the other menu showed up. So this problem is also present for fresh installs.
