It appears that upstream ships two .desktop files with gaby. However, they are not being installed to the correct location (/usr/share/applications). As a result, they do not appear in the menu. Since gaby is currently Auto-Synced from Debian, I would advise patching this in Debian instead of in Ubuntu. That way, we can continue to Auto-Sync the package, instead of having to merge it.

I'll change this and then i'll send a email to debian maintainer.

see you!

It's full of errors, It will take more time to solve it.

This is still reproducible in Jaunty 9.04.
