Sir,

Excellent.  It was just the right answer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I cut & pasted the article :

i don't know about kde (using gnome) but in gnome when you manually delete a
menu item like wine it writes an entry to /home/<user
name>/.config/menus/applications.menu
 Code:

<Name>wine-wine</Name>
                
<DirectoryDir>/home/doug/.local/share/desktop-directories</DirectoryDir>
                <Deleted/>

remove the <Deleted/>
maybe kde does the same thing
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One small thing to note was : that there were applications.menu 4 copies, 0,
10, 11 & 12.  I changed the menu as directed in the last copy i.e,
applications.menu12.

It just worked sir.

Thanks very much. (In fact I was planning to reinstall 10.04 on this sunday,
if this problem was not sorted out before).
