Thanks for your quick reply! Sorry for the spam, was frustrated by the broken
upgrade.

Looks like the broken menu system is the root cause of this. I'll try to
reproduce that breakage over the next couple days. I think menu must've simply
been in a half-upgraded state, which then broke rxvt as apt didn't know that it
used it when present. I'm not sure what could be done about that.

Huh strange.
I think given the above and that it's not the fault of rxvt, it should be
closed.
If I can find some way to reproduce it, I'll reopen (and reassign to whatever
ends up being at fault) but that seems unlikely given the tests you did.
Thanks,
Jacob
