Add sub menu for all debian packages to /etc/xdg/menus/hildon.menu

[MerlijnWajer]

We should be able to add a sub menu that contains all the debian entries, but not the hildon ones.

Also see https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-1.0.html

And maybe the catorise source can help http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/catorise/

So adding this as a submenu does something:

  <Menu>
    <Name>Debian</Name>
    <Directory>debian.directory</Directory>

    <AppDir>/usr/share/applications</AppDir>
    <DirectoryDir>/usr/share/applications</DirectoryDir>

    <LegacyDir>/usr/share/applications/hildon</LegacyDir>

    <Include>
        <All/>
    </Include>
  </Menu>

Also needs this:

# cat /usr/share/applications/hildon/debian.directory
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Directory
Name=Debian

Then you will get a sub menu with all the apps, but also the hildon ones (some of them double?), but it's a start.

This is possibly a duplicate of #82. I would be happy with your proposed solution of using a submenu.

[MerlijnWajer]

It's not perfect yet -- there are duplicate entries, and the hildon ones are there too, so we might want to do something on insertion of new .desktop files, there are probably dpkg hooks for that.

@parazyd ?

I also think the LegacyDir has no effect.

[MerlijnWajer]

And yes, you're right, it is a duplicate.

Just for reference, I don't have it working yet, but this is what I had working on April 13.
