Bug Description

Quantal i386 logged as gnome-classic

Looking for my actual ufw settings, i've not found the usual entry into Applications -> Internet menu (nor into an other submenu).
This is missing too from the Applications Loaded at Startup list entries.

Is that the normal design now ? Seems like a regression.

Hi! It's must be in Administration submenu and in the Control Center ;) Could you check it, please?
Best regards.

The gufw desktop file located at /usr/share/applications/gufw.desktop has a line inside it that says
"OnlyShowIn=Unity;" which prevents it from appearing in other desktops. This might affect gnome-classic too. I'm using Kubuntu Quantal 64bit and gufw didn't appear in my KDE menu originally. I had to comment out the "OnlyShowIn=Unity;" line to get it to appear.

gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/gufw.desktop
(Kubuntu users can use kdesudo kate /usr/share/applications/gufw.desktop)

Change the line that says:
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
to this:
# OnlyShowIn=Unity;

Save the file. If gufw does not appear in the menu within in few seconds, then you would probably need to log out then log back in.
