Package: gamin
Version: 0.1.5-2
Severity: important

i upgraded gamin and libgamin from 0.1.5-2 to 0.1.7-2 from testing
branch. i then noticed that my gnome applications menu would not display
for me or any other user on the system. i googled around and found an
old fedora list post that suggested reinstalling gamin. this didn't work
but narrowed it down to gamin. i went back to version 0.1.5-2 for both
gamin and libgamin and i have my menu back. 

i'm not really sure if its a gamin problem or a gnome-menu problem.
either way the problem occurred on the gamin upgrade and was fixed on
the gamin downgrade so i apologise if i should be submitting to debian-gnome instead. 

thanks

Takis
