I know i'm replying on my own messages, but i've had the suggestion of Petr
Vanek to run update-menus, i tried this with the following result, when I
copy the cat script (/usr/share/doc/menu/examples/cat) or the -d (debug)
flag, everything goes well but it always ends with the following error
messages, the items mentioned exist fgrepping for these items in
/etc/menu-methods | wc -l results always in the same amount of lines,
any suggestions ?
