I'm using windowmaker for ~10 years. Over the years the menu entries

They contained the software installed on the system (at least most of
it). IIRC there was an dedicated Debian entry where I could find most
necessary stuff.
Unfortunately my machine died a while back and I set up a new one
running testing. (retrieving my config from the backup)
Now the menues are/appear to be static. They contain software not
installed (e.g. emacs) and misses lots of software. This makes the
menu rather useless.
Could you restore the useful menu system/entries from stable?
Do you have the "menu" package installed? It's part of Window Maker's
"Suggested" packages, and is needed to properly generate the Debian menu.
You can also customize the menu to your liking using the WPrefs app.
