Severity: minor
On the KDE3 mapping of the Debian menus, applications in the 'Viewers' submenu
such as mplayer, Real Player, and xine are listed under the Graphics submenu,
not under Multimedia as it seems they should. For example, the Graphics
submenu has a paintbrush icon and contains still image editing. The
Multimedia submenu has an icon of a CD and filmstrip, much more indicative of
movie watching software.
I suppose the root of this problem is the division between menu choices in
Debian do not harmonize well with KDE's categories, e.g. "Graphics", "Sound",
and "Viewers" in menu versus "Graphics" and "Multimedia" in KDE3.
I see no easy solution short of a Debian Policy change to match KDE
(unlikely), or customizing the KDE3.1 menus to match 'menu's
categories when KDE3 goes into SID.

This bug has been fixed by the KDE 3.2 upload to sid. I fixed it by
completely separating out the Debian menu. In the future hopefully
Debian will adopt the freedesktop menu standards, which has many more
descriptive categories, and Debian and freedestkop.org can resolve any
remaining problematic areas (hopefully shortly after the sarge release).

Thanks,
Chris
