Your package isn't install on my desktop, though, there are 6 submenus in the 
Games menu, and 41 games.

In the Development menu, there are 3 submenus: Web Development, KDevelop and 
Translation that can be related to files
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-development.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-development-kdevelop.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-development-translation.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-development-webdevelopment.directory

What I don't understand is there isn't submenu in the Utilities menu although 
there are files
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-accessibility.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-desktop.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-file.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-peripherals.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-pim.directory
/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-utilities-xutils.directory

I finally get an answer to my question: there are some extras categories, but 
its don't work for kde-utilities.

Regards,
Alain
