Tuxmath appears in menu under 'Games' instead of 'Education'

[Brian Pitts]

Binary package hint: tuxmath

Tuxmath appears in the applications menu under 'Games' instead of 'Education'.

This is because Categories=Game;KidsGame; in tuxmath.desktop. I believe a more appropriate categorization would be Categories=Education; like tuxtyping and tuxpaint have. It's unfortunate that these three programs are not listed together in the menus.

updated category to Education;Math;
attached debdiff, added motu sponsors.

Frank, what version of Ubuntu are you running?

And you didn't quite follow the procedure to make your debdiff, as decribed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix .

I think the last procedure would be something like debdiff tuxmath_1.7.2-1.dsc tuxmath_1.7.2-1ubuntu1.dsc > tuxmath_1.7.2-1ubuntu1.debdiff

Jeremy, I am using Karmic Koala.
Sorry I am a bit new to this. I have now attached the correct debdiff file.

[Jeremy Bicha (jbicha)]

Frank, thanks. That patch is a lot more readable. I believe Debian will be updating the categories but they are waiting for the next TuxMath version to be released instead of making a minor change just for this. I don't believe we'll want to do a Stable Release Update for Karmic just for this either. But I think there is a good chance this will be fixed before Lucid is released.

Jeremy - OK thanks, no problem! ^_^

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package tuxmath - 1.7.2-1ubuntu1
