One or both ports needs to rename the "applications.menu" file and point to it. Ubuntu has to deal with this, so we should too.

I've assigned it to the (new) maintainer of gnome-menus. Dave, any thoughts on this?

Assigning to the new maintainers of kdelibs4. Any ideas?

I am trying out a patch for kdelibs4 taken from Debian's packaging which renames applications.menu to kde4-applications.menu.
The gnome-menus maintainers should take a look at Debian's packaging for gnome-menus, which also renames a couple of menus to prevent such conflicts.

Well. Nothing I can do about that. Deactivate or force.
