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.
