subcommander does not install menu entry

[Benny]

Binary package hint: subcommander

After installing subcommander I should be able to run the application by clicking an icon in the Programming menu. But it isn't there, neither in Ubuntu or in Kubuntu.

I suspect all this could be fixed by installing a .desktop file.

Fixed by saving the attached file in /usr/share/applications/subcommander.desktop
Gnome tested only.

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

I'm working on this

[Bernard François (bernardfrancois-gmail)]

Here I do have an entry in the applications menu. I'm running ubuntu 9.04 and I have subcommander 2.0.
Perhaps it has been forgotten to close this bug report?
