Problems w/menu files, and update-menus, fvwm95



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I cannot seem to  successfully load menu entries in fvwm95 by creating
menus files in /usr/lib/menus for the following two apps:
xpostit+
xdvi

and then running update-menus at the prompt

Although I have successfully created for the below listed apps:
zircon
lyx
xspread

Note: The first time I had installed Debian 1.3.1 Official CD from Cheapbytes I had successfully created menu file entries for both xdvi, and also xpostit+.

I have tried variations of the format of the menu files for both xdvi and xpostit+.  Below is the basic format for both files.

/usr/lib/menu
x11 Apps/Viewers xdvi none "Xdvi" /usr/X11R6/bin/xdvi

/usr/lib/menu
x11 Apps/Tools xpostit+ none "StickyNotes" /usr/X11R6/bin/xpostit+

After creating and saving both files in /usr/lib/menu
ran #update-menus, nothing happens

The other 3 apps menu files for zircon, lyx, and xspread, loaded into fvwm95 w/no problems. Note: these 3 apps are also in /usr/X11R6/bin.

Note: In my file heirarchy their is this
/usr/bin/X11-which is a link to... /usr/X11R6/bin? does this have any bearing on this problem?
Note: I have very recently in the last 2 weeks upgraded/migrated to the libc6, using and following the debian how-to for the procedure, with 100% completion.
Note: xpostit+ also has a link to it in /usr/X11R6/bin/xpostit-link to xpostit+
NOte: I have tried every little subtle variation of the menu/files for the above two apps, including the new menu file format, and nothing has worked.  With the 3 apps that loaded fine, I could use either format and it worked fine.

If anyone can help me with this, or provide with an explanation or insight it would be greatly appreciated
