User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070404 BonEcho/2.0.0.3 Build Identifier: Running Gentoo Linux, I recently upgraded my menu to the 25/03/2007 snapshot of the xfdesktop build to try it out. However, every time I tried to run an OpenOffice.org program through the menu, it came up with the error "/home/ivan/%U does not exist" in an error dialog, and then halt. Downgrading to the stable 4.4.0 version fixed this. At first, I thought this was a problem with the Gentoo setup of OpenOffice, until I noticed that launching from the command line worked properly. Here is the Gentoo bugzilla bug report: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173308 Reproducible: Didn't try I'm running Gentoo Linux 2006.0 on an x86 Centrino laptop.

Fixed up the summary (accidentally pasted something in there twice)
This should work properly - please attach the offending .desktop file.
Created attachment 1088 OpenOffice.org Writer .desktop menu file Here is one of the .desktop files that the new menu system seems to choke over.
This should be fixed in svn, 4.4 branch.
