The first step would be to change your ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu file
to contain only this text:
"menu.hook"
Next, make sure you don't have a menu.hook file anywhere under your
GNUstep directory (IIRC it would be in GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/, but i
could be wrong. Use find.)
Your menus should now be back to the default Debian setup, and
update-menus (as root) will work properly. Note that if you run
update-menus as your user, then update-menus as root (e.g. when new
packages are installed) will not affect your menus; you'll have to
update-menus manually as your user. Or just delete the
~/GNUstep/..../menu.hook file.

Because you're not using the Debian menus, you won't see them. They are
being properly put into the global Debian menus though.
