update-menus

[Fabien <fabien@cur-archamps.fr>]

Hello.

I have tried to use update-menus for local applications (not from debian
package).

In man menufile, they say :
<<  Each menuentry specifies what pack­
       age it depends on, if that package is not  installed,  the
       menuentry will be ignored by update-menus(1).  (In a menu­
       entry you can  specify  pseudo-packages  that  start  with
       "local",  update-menus will always use those menuentries).
>>

So I have tried it, in /etc/menu (I think it's the good place for it)
and also in /usr/lib/menu
But, it doesn't work...
this  is my localmenu :
?package(localnetscape):needs=x11 command="/usr/local/bin/netscape"
section=Apps
/Net title="Netscape"

Yes, I know : there is a netscape package, but this is not the problem.

Thanks for your help !
