update-menus problem with potato

[Gerhard Kroder <Gerhard.Kroder@data-sciences.de>]

i've just setup a brandnew potato system (builtup from scratch as
potato) an try to get x/windowmanagers runnig. i noticed that 
update-menus doesn't run throug correctly, but i can't find the problem. 


running on the new system shows:

> gerdk@testgk8 gerdk >more update-menus.log 
> In file "/usr/lib/menu/xbase-clients", at (or in the definition that ends at) line 22:
> [...]"x11" package="xbase-clients" section="Apps/Tools"
> [...]                                                 ^
> Missing (or empty) tag: title
> This tag needs to defined for the menuentry to make sense.
> Note, BTW, that update-menus re-arranges the order of the
> tags found in the menu entry files, so that the part above
> isn't literal
> /etc/menu-methods//asclassic: Aborting

and so on for all other things  update-menus should do...

testing on an older system runnung already potato shows:

> root@stardust /root >update-menus 
> In file "/etc/menu-methods//afterstep", at (or in the definition that ends at) l
> ine 32:
> startmenu=   "PopUp \"" $section "\"\n" Title title() "\"\n"
>                                             ^
> Unknown function: "Title"
> /etc/menu-methods//afterstep: Aborting
> Update-menus[3535]: Script /etc/menu-methods//afterstep returned error status 1.
> root@stardust /root >


what to do?
