Hi!

Thanks you for your report!

Interesting question. Currently, dia just installs menu files for
dia(-normal) and dia-gnome each, which will both appear in the menu, if
available.

Now I wonder if menu entries should follow alternative system choices or
not. Is there a policy about that or some common practice in other packages?
