No reason?No-one from the Debian team has looked at it, and we haven't modified anything there. The only modifications are in the patch 906_set_gnome_menu_right.diff for the categories.
Are you telling me that those have changed upstream?
Well, I'm pretty sure now that the files /usr/share/gnome/apps/net/printeradmin.desktop and /usr/share/gnome/apps/net/setup.desktop have been messed up somewhere between 1.0.2-2 and 1.0.3-2 (the full name and his translations have disappeard).If you are not prepared to work on patches, be prepared to wait for someone who is.It's not about having to be prepared to submit patches or not, but to have no answer at all submitting bug reports...Your questions were directed at parts of OOo that have not been modified by the team (except the categories) and no-one who reads the list felt they knew enough about to provide you with a answer and left it for someone else to answer. In the meantime there was conversation about the Gnome categories going on in the bug report so I didn't see the need spend time repeating that to you. Now the patch is in the packages and you say there are still problems so I'm responding, although I still haven't had time to look at it myself. But if you're willing to look at this yourself I will do my best to point you in the right direction.
Could you revert back to this version for future releases?It's not a big deal, but it looks ugly when you have strange items into the menus (in GNOME 1.x AND GNOME 2.x).
I'm going to see if it's an upstream issue and make them fix it if needed. Thanks [...]
