I don't think this particular dependency (menu-xdg depending on menu)
is warranted. Indeed, the menu manual explicitly recommends against
depending on menu. Previous KDE packages did not depend on menu.
menu is part of the desktop task, though.

You can also disable the blackbox menu-method instead of removing menu.
