Fbmenugen (perl script) doesn't create icons in Fluxbox

Hi everyone!
I'm using Salix 15 Xfce, and installed Fluxbox 1.37 using Gslapt, and fbmenugen 0.88 using sbopkg, with all dependencies (perl-data-dump perl-linux-desktop-files perl-gtk2 perl-Gtk3 perl-file-desktopentry). But when I run in a terminal the command to generate a menu with icons:

Code: Select all

$ fbmenugen -i
it returns the error:

Code: Select all

:: Regenerating the cache DB...
Required key missing in Desktop Entry: Name at /usr/bin/fbmenugen line 526.
Required key missing in Desktop Entry: Type at /usr/bin/fbmenugen line 526.
Too late to run INIT block at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm line 257.
:: A new menu has been successfully generated!
And the menu is generated without icons.

So, I looked in the fbmenugen code (as seen here https://gitlab.com/trizen/fbmenugen/-/b ... type=heads), but I can't figure what is wrong, since I don't know perl language.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know about fbmenugen, but you can try xdgmenumaker.
