Some package maintainers have not been adding entries for the menu package to deal with like they used to. Even more frustratingly, some maintainers will claim they added entries, but when you grab the version the maintainer claims they're in, they aren't there! (As happened with my bug report for the tin package which I should reopen) I consider this a grave bug for newbies making the transition. -- Baloo
