If the user doesn't exist, then the mydsl.menu files may not create
a new menu entry. I assume there will be an inert mydsl.menu directory
orphaned in your /tmp . There have been no reports of any problems so far.
It is possible that corruption can occur in your menus or desktop icons
when proper permissions and ownerships are not followed.
Since the mydsl-menu concept only truly applies to a LiveCD install,
the idea of installing a .dsl extension to a multi-user HDinstall hasn't been tackled yet.
Usually, a HDInstall works thru apt-get install, rather than a .dsl,
although many folks report good success with using them that way,
either thru untarring them from root, or using the mydsl functions in 0.7.1
Of course, once installed, dsl's are permanent in the HDinstall.
A user could simply apt-get install the application, and manually
add an icon and link to their username's .xtdesktop directory.
Or, copy the same stuff from the damnsmall/.xtdesktop directory
to a new users .xtdesktop directory after installing the .dsl
roberts can provide you with more data on the actions of mydsl-menu
in HDinstalls. myDSL is his creation.
