</I>>><i> Hi,
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> After running Mageia and a debian based distro Linuxmint, one thing
</I>>><i> appeared strange, after installing a rpm (that included .desktop
</I>>><i> files) the menu entry didnt appeared after the rpm installation, it
</I>>><i> takes about 10 seconds after the rpm install to have the new entries
</I>>><i> in the kde panel menu (or kmenu), and in the debian based distro the
</I>>><i> time between the package install and having the entries listed in

</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Is this a problem thats only related with rpm packagement or could it
</I>>><i> be improved so that the menus could appear after the install in kmenu
</I>>><i> (without having to wait about 10 seconds)?
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> regards,

</I>>><i>
</I>><i> I hadn't noticed that, but I'll look next time I install something.

</I>><i> (Since both would use xdg with .desktop files.)

That shouldn't really have an effect on the delay, it is just a
different layout.
Possibly
a) Simple w didn't use KDE in Mint but another DE, which would affect
the speed (maybe the other DE detects changes more aggressively), or
b) Mint somehow triggers menu update when a package is updated (not
as easy as one would think, as packages are updated by root
and menus are user-specific), or
c) An interaction difference between apt and rpm which causes KDE to
detect menu file changes slower, or
d) A KDE bug.
><i> At least a 10-second delay isn't a major problem.
