Network Configuration menu item should also be displayed in Xfce

[Vincent]

Binary package hint: network-manager

nm-connection-editor.desktop
 says "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;", however, this application is just as useful in Xfce and probably other environments as well, so it should either say "NotShowin=KDE;" or "OnlyShowIn=GNOME,Xfce;", off the top of my head.

Thanks.

Thank you for taking time to report this bug. Does your workaround fix the problem (This did not become perfectly clear from your description)?. Thanks in advance.

[Vincent (vinnl)]

Yep, I just changed OnlyShowIn=GNOME; to OnlyShowIn=GNOME,XFCE; and now it is in my menu. (It's not a workaround, it's a genuine fix ;-))

Ok, here is a patch for it. Seems like this is a bug in "network-manager-applet". Thanks.
