Attachments: Openjdk Policy menu too large

Description Aurelien Oudelet 2020-07-11 13:34:30 CEST 
Description of problem:
Menu for Openjdk Policy is too large as it shows current version in name.
It is not user friendly.

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install with Classic ISO, whatever desktop selected
2. Open Application Menu and see in "Tools" category:

OpenJDK 8 Policy Tool 1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.252-1.b09.3.mga8.x64_86 

It comes from /usr/share/applications/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.252-1.b09.3.mga8.x86_64-policytool.desktop

Therefore, in Mageia repos, there is only one available Java version.
$ dnf provides java
java-1.8.0-openjdk-1:1.8.0.252-1.b09.3.mga8.x86_64 : OpenJDK Runtime Environment
Dépôt               : @System
Correspondances trouvées dans  :
Provide    : java = 1:1.8.0

java-1.8.0-openjdk-1:1.8.0.252-1.b09.3.mga8.x86_64 : OpenJDK Runtime Environment
Dépôt               : cauldron-x86_64
Correspondances trouvées dans  :
Provide    : java = 1:1.8.0

See attachment below.

Workaround:
Manually Edit Menu and reduce the name.

Summary: Openjdk Policy menu too large => Openjdk Policy applications menu entry is too long

Comment 2 Lewis Smith 2020-07-21 12:19:16 CEST 
True also for Mageia 7. Presumably the menu caption should not include more than the application name, not the version etc.

Nicolas looks best to assign this to.

Hi,

For Cauldron, java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.262-1.b10.2.mga8 should solve the issue.
For Mageia 7, the fix is committed in SVN.

Best regards,

Nico.

In Cauldron, fix is here.
At it is cosmetic, and Mageia 8 is around, we can close Resolved Fixed.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Comment 5 Aurelien Oudelet 2020-08-20 12:56:58 CEST 
Sadly above problem (cosmetic therefore but annoying) returns with

java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.272.b02-0.0.ea.3.mga8.x86_64:

/usr/share/applications/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.272.b02-0.0.ea.3.mga8.x86_64-policytool.desktop

(from yesterday updates)

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED => (none)

Comment 6 Aurelien Oudelet 2020-11-10 20:44:07 CET 
Fixed in M7 and Cauldron

Status: REOPENED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
