Package: menu-xdg
Version: 0.5
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Running update-menus as a normal user dumps all Debian menu entries into
~/.local/share/applications/menu-xdg/ including system global ones. This causes
problems to desktop managers that exclude the Debian menu since they already
provide desktop entries for most applications. In Gnome3, all Debian menu
entries will appear in the Other category and produce duplicates when using the
app search.

The expected behaviour would be to just dump the menu entries in ~/.menu, not
all entries in the system. The ~/.local/share/applications/menu-xdg/ directory
is meant for user installed menu entries and menu-xdg is currently breaking
that assumption.
