While working on a fix for Bug 7340 to provide dynamic xdg menus for Openbox I found that the script xdg_menu which produces the dynamic menus outputs bad xml for Openbox When called with 'xdg_menu --format openbox3' the xml produced does not have menu start and end tags, and the menu ids are not unique so a submenu with the title 'More' will have the same id as the other submenus of the same name. The lack of start and end tags causes openbox to reject the menu, and if the tags are added manually the non unique id means that all but the first instance of the 'More' submenu are rejected. I have a patch for xdg_menu to fix the openbox xml, but as an apprentice packager I do not want to commit to a package assigned to someone else with impact on other desktops. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 4156 [details] Fix XML for Openbox This patch puts menu start and end tags around the output of 'xdg_menu --format openbox3', and makes the menu ids unique by catenating the submenu title with its parent.
