2007-02-15 15:27:44 Patrice Vetsel vim: statusexplanation Looks like vim-gnome doesn't install a .desktop file. Changed importance to medium. In a user view, installing an application and can't find his entry on menu is a big problem. End user do not have to open a terminal or use alt+f2 to launch gvim (if it already know that the name of the command is "gvim")

2007-04-15 08:53:50 Sitsofe Wheeler description After installing vim-gtk I expected a menu entry for the editor to appear, but none ever did. Nor is it an option in the right mouse button menu for text files in nautilus. It is not even in "Open with Other Application..." window. vim-gnome was no better. Description of the problem: After installing vim-gnome there was no sign of a Gvim menu entry despite gnome-app-install saying it could be found in Applications -> Accessories. It was also not present in the right mouse button menu of text files. Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to Applications -> Add/Remove... 2. Ensure that Show is on "All available applications" then type vim into the Search field. 3. Tick "Gvim Text Editor" then click apply. 4. Click Apply in the unnamed window that follows. 5. A dialog titled should appear indicating where Gvim is within the menu structure. Expected result: "Gvim Text Editor" menu entry to be present in Applications -> Accessories. "Open with Gvim Text Editor" to become be present in the right mouse button menu of text files. Actual results: Applications -> Accessories lacks a Gvim option. Right mouse button menu of text files does not have an "Open with Gvim Text Editor" option. How reproducible is the problem? It is reproducible every time.
