Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

edubuntu-docs is now shipping with Edubuntu. There is an About Edubuntu doc shipped but it does not show up in the System Panel.

I see in debian/patches/01_layout.patch in gnome-panel the code for the About Ubuntu item:

+ if (g_file_test (DATADIR"/omf/about-ubuntu/about-ubuntu-C.omf",
+ G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR))
+ panel_menu_items_append_from_desktop (menu, "ubuntu-about.desktop", NULL);
+

Would it be possible to get the same thing for an edubuntu-about.desktop?

       if (g_file_test (DATADIR"/omf/about-edubuntu/about-edubuntu-C.omf",
                        G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR))
         panel_menu_items_append_from_desktop (menu, "edubuntu-about.desktop", NULL);

The .desktop is committed to the doc team svn repo. I'm just getting other things ready for a new upload of edubuntu-docs

This will mean two menu entries in the panel:

pdaniel@bert:~$ apt-cache rdepends ubuntu-docs
ubuntu-docs
Reverse Depends:
  ubuntu-desktop
  edubuntu-docs
  edubuntu-desktop
daniel@bert:~$

Is this what you want?
