Bug Description

Binary package hint: realplayer

Using the dapper-commercial repository, I installed Realplayer 10.

It works just fine, and doesn't crash when I go to Open File, which was
a problem with an older version from another source. However, at first
I thought it wasn't installed, because I didn't see it in the Sound & Video
submenu. Instead, it is installed in the Graphics submenu, which doesn't
make sense.

Please change the realplay.desktop's Categories tag to
Sound & Video where the other music and video players are.

Problem lies in /usr/share/applications/realplay.desktop :

Categories=Graphics
where
Categories=AudioVideo;Player;

would be better.
