Gnome 2.10 messed up menus


I just update Gnome to 2.10, some how it screwed up the menus. The Gnome menu in IceWM is pretty much empty. And if I log into Gnome there are duplicate programs listed on almost every menu.

On the other hand my KDE menus were screwed up and now they are fixed. Talk about weird.

Any ideas on how to either fix the problem or how to downgrade back to Gnome2.8?

Ok uninstall the gnome-menu package then reinstalling it seems to have fix the Gnome menus, but under Icewm the Gnome menu is still blank. Really no biggie as my program menu still works.

Anyone know how I can edit the bin file icewm-menu-gnome2? That seems to be what is telling icewm where to look for the menus for Gnome and KDE.

Right now Gnome is pointed at /usr/share/gnome/vfolders/ (seems to be empty)
and KDE is /usr/share/applnk/ (this is the correct folder)

Here is the complete menu entry:
menuprog "Gnome" folder icewm-menu-gnome2 --list /usr/share/gnome/vfolders/
menuprog "KDE" folder icewm-menu-gnome2 --list /usr/share/applnk/
