Description of problem: I downloaded the source code for Firefox Nightly and I used alacarte to add the binary to Programs ->Internet and as I choose the right icon for it and clicked close button I couldn't see it in the menu. I even did update-menus in terminal and that didn't work either. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.36.0 How reproducible: All the time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the source archive for Firefox from the Mozilla ftp server. 2. Unpack the archive to $HOME 3. Press Alt + F2 and type alacarte and hit Enter/Return. 4. Now add a new item to the Internet submenu and choose the right icon and click Close. 5. Click on Programs ->Internet and it's not there.
I'm using mate-desktop-1.22.1-1.mga7
Hi, thanks for reporting this bug. I tried to reproduce this. In facts, "alacarte" is not installed by default under MATE. There is no option by default to personalize MATE menu. Looking on Internet tutorial to do this, seems a missing package somewhere. "alacarte" refers to GNOME menu from 3.32 version. No effect in MATE. Therefore, after installing "alacarte", there is under "System => Preferences => Apparence => Main menu. This permits editing Menu. But states are not saved. They do appear under above app, but MATE menu remains unchanged, even after loggout/login back. Seems this not the recommended way for MATE. Looking for packages in repo: Found 2: - mate-menu - mate-menus 2 packages with one subtle difference: a plural on one... Viewing RPM SPECS: mate-menu is from Ubuntu-MATE menu and has a working "Main menu" editor" mate-menus is from upstream MATE sources, with an "Main menu" editor, but seems not working... This is installed by default, but no entry for editing App menu. I'm lost. Why 2 packages for one functions?... Last question: what should be the best way to edit Application Menu under MATE with Mageia? Assigned to the package maintainer. (Please set the status to 'assigned' if you are working on it)

Using System => Preferences => Apparence => Main menu opens what I think is also alacarte and I tried adding a menu item, but the OK button is greyed out so I can't add the item.
