This directive is recognised by version 2.0 or greater of the 'menu' package, but it looks like you have an older version installed. You can put up with it (in which case, Enlightenment's "debian" menus may not work), upgrade the menu package, or comment out this line in /etc/menu-methods/enlightenment (in which case, you may get two "debian" menus if you run update-menus as a regular user).
