Helpdesk Mgmt Odoo 18 Zip install XML missing data. #922

Description

Module

ZIP package on community shop site for odoo 18

Describe the bug

Missing module category XML
Had to Create:

helpdesk_mgmt/data/helpdesk_category.xml

Helpdesk Helpdesk access rights 30

This satisfies:

ref="module_helpdesk_category"

used in helpdesk_security.xml.

Then Fix the manifest (exact order matters)

helpdesk_mgmt/manifest.py

"data": [
"data/helpdesk_data.xml",
"data/helpdesk_category.xml",
"security/helpdesk_security.xml",
"security/ir.model.access.csv",
...
],

Expected behavior
Should install without fault.

Additional context
Contextually this shouldn't have been something that you missed, and as I am currently performing an investigation for my current company to see if odoo is a good fit for our support and IT team, you should mention not to use the GUI to attempt this. That would have reduced time wasted. Missing details in a supposedly complete package is minor oversight but hey I am the one who had to figure it out. So it triggered my I need to tell someone, so here we are.

I was told by a friend I should be nicer about this...

If you need more context don't hesitate to ask, but I don't come here very often as in github.
