Lxappearance theme changer desktop file is broken it shows only in lxde menu not in any other menu like lxqt.

This is problem in desktop file it have this what force it to be lxde only while application is made to be desktop independent.

OnlyShowIn=LXDE;

Hi,

It is not a bug but a feature (that was in the SPEC file since the Mandriva times: 0.4.0-2mdv2010.1) because Lxappearance is not desktop independent but it is really for LXDE (for instance, changing the cursor theme with Lxappearance under LXQt does nothing outside a GTK application; under Openbox or IceWM, also, the changes are not very visible).

Moreover, if you really want to use Lxappearance, you can launch it from a terminal, for example, so IMO it does not need to be accessible from the menu.

Best regards,

Nico.
