Severity: minor

Hi Kov,

% cat /usr/lib/menu/devhelp:
=2E..
hints=3D"DevHelp: developer's documentation browser and helper"
=2E..

is incorrect use of hints since they are used for categorization and not
for describing the program. Since DevHelp is already in
Apps/Programming, then I suggest that you set hints to "Documentation".

See
http://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30046/2/menu-one-file.html#s3.8
for details.

Cheers,
Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau
