Was why sudo was needed. /usr/local/bin files are not user writeable

How to Search for AntiX solutions to your problems@rokytnji I think it it a new change in latest update. one throwback is that option “Refresh Menu” in the menu, is not working because it need a sudo.
Robin
Permission denied
Was why sudo was needed. /usr/local/bin files are not user writeable
…Hope that the above explains this.
The files in /usr/local/bin are not involved in menu creation at all. So this actually doesn’t explain it.
Please try instead:
chown root:users /usr/share/desktop-menu/.*/menu-applications chmod 664 /usr/share/desktop-menu/.*/menu-applicationsFor some unknown reason sometimes the permission of these files are changed, and then the error LeadFarmer describes shows up. After this happens you always need sudo for updating the menu, until you restore the original permissions as described above to the files. Then no sudo is needed again anymore for desktop-menu write-out-global.
This should also restore the refresh menu entry in the main menu working again.
I wonder, since we had written and tested a fixed version of desktop-menu a year ago already for antiX 19, but the fixes obviously didn’t make their way into the antiX repos until now, not in antiX 21 and not in 22. Also all translations we have done meanwhile are still ignored by the version recently still used by antiX, even in antiX 23 beta.

antiX-22 and antiX-23 are using the latest version of desktop-menu as far as I am aware. (There are no merge requests at Gitlab for this package).
Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

See: https://gitlab.com/antiX-Dave/desktop-menu-antix/-/merge_requests/7
Then I presume @Dave is still working on it. Good things need time.

@Robin – ahh ok.
Why all the mo files?

Why all the mo files?
There are no apps to translate in desktop-menu-antixThese files are the translations of desktop-menu itself. See https://app.transifex.com/antix-linux-community-contributions/antix-contribs/desktop-menu/
(and this is also what my question #2 in latest email was about, concerning moving them to antiX-development)

Update: after the latest update, there no need for sudo, thanks to the devs for fixing the problem.
