           Summary: wierd error message when trying to open htm and html
                    files for editing using right click for menu - says
                    Desktop Menu File has invalid entry  in
                    Amarok_addaspodcast.desktop
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: ebywater westnet com au


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

When I right click on a html, htm, or xhtml file to open the menu so as to select the editing program to edit the file, I get an error message which reads:

quote

The desktop Entry File

/usr/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/amarok_adaspodcast.desktop

has an invalid menu entry

addAsPodcast

end quote

The file mentioned reads:

quote

[Desktop Entry]
ServiceTypes=text/html,text/xml,application/xml,text/rss
Actions=addAsPodcast
[Desktop Action addAsPodcast]
Name=Add as podcast to amaroK
Name[de]=Als Podcast zu amaroK hinzufügen
Icon=amarok
X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=desktop_dolphin

end quote

I did try using the System Settings to adjust the File Associations, but that has no effect.

I have no podcast equipment, have not activated any podcast software, and am unable to access and edit the file to remove this line as I'm using Kubuntu 8.04 and not being a Linux guru I don't know how to get the system to let me into root to change this via the command line. Since this seems to be an issue with the KDE Desktop (and I could be wrong about that) I've come here first.

I didn't have this problem with the Kubuntu 8.04 RC I upgraded to during the week; I know this as four days ago I edited some html files no trouble. But I've done some updates in the last three days that included a lot of KDE updates, and now I have this problem.

This problem doesn't crash the system but it is extremely annoying as it happens every time I right click a html or hml file, after giving the error sound, I can then go on with what I wish to do; but I'm about to start development of a major web site and could do without this bloody noise all the time.

Thank you
