This is for the Debian menu; I don't know if it has anything to do
with the gnome menu..

I don't know anything about that; presumably it is not displayed
because of something in ~/.gnome or whatever its called.

as expected.

Unless its a user command, and not a global command, I expect it also
wont do anything (and, not a Debian menu thing, but a gnome menu
thing).
