Both KDE and GNOME applications.menu are in ~mezz/menu/, so you can  =

compare the difference. We can either merge both of applications.menu in=
to  =

one or try to rename applications.menu to (kde|gnome)-applications.menu.=
 I  =

am not sure about <MergeFile> stuff...so.. What I have in my mind is  =

something like this below, but I have no idea if it will working. If tha=
t  =

don't work, then do either merge into one or hack all apps for rename of=
  =

applications.menu.

applications.menu:
