1 I seem to see this from time to time when I look at the emerge logs that are
2 emailed to me by portage, and I never know what to make of it.
3 This one is from kde-base/kcontrol-3.5.5:
4
5 LOG: preinst
6 /usr/kde/3.5/share/applications/kde/panel_appearance.desktop: required
7 key "Name" not found --
8 required key "Type" not found
9
10 Why is this allowed to occur? What am I expected to do about it, and how
11 would I know that, given that I'm a user, not a developer?
