[Fabounet <fabounet03@xxxxxxxxx>]

actually, seeing the code of GMenu, the f, F, u and U parameters are ignored
because it seems they shouldn't appear in a launcher.
is there any output in the terminal when you launch a program from the GMenu
?
ignored parameters are printed with a warning.
also with the latest weekly the final command is printed, this could help.
Thanks.

Bug description:
In Gnome 2.30 (Debian Squeeze), if the command of an application has a parameter (like %f, %U or %F) in its desktop file, the application may complain about not finding a file when run with GMenu. Examples are Inkscape and GIMP; CherryTree doesn't find its last document, NoteCase reports a crash, and Dia even hangs.

This bug is somehow serious and made me to temporarily abandon Cairo-Dock in favor of gnome-panel.
