Thus far, you're the only additional test case where we can unravel any bugs unless some others volunteer too. If you can keep a copy of that 3.5.12 profile safely stored then we can keep testing. But we also need to determine whether the problem you describe is the profile or the system menus.

I'll get a longer answer later. I'll work with the conversion script and see if
we can tease out where the issue is. On Arch, you have
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg:/opt/trinity/etc/xdg. It is set from:

/etc/profile.d/xorg.sh
/etc/profile.d/trinity.sh

Hmm, I wonder how the interplay between these two scripts could impact the menu
generation? e.g.:

~/bld/david/opt> cat /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh
export XDG_DATA_HOME=$HOME/.local/share
export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config
export XDG_CACHE_HOME=$HOME/.cache

if [ -z $XDG_DATA_DIRS ]; then
        export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/
else
        export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:$XDG_DATA_DIRS
fi

if [ -z $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS ]; then
        export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg
else
        export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg:$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
fi

~/bld/david/opt> cat /etc/profile.d/trinity.sh
export TDEDIR=/opt/trinity
export TDEDIRS=$TDEDIR
export PATH=$PATH:$TDEDIR/bin
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:$TDEDIR/lib/pkgconfig
if [ ! -z $XDG_DATA_DIRS ]; then
  export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$TDEDIR/share
else
  export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$TDEDIR/share
fi
if [ ! -z $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS ]; then
  export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS:$TDEDIR/etc/xdg
else
  export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$TDEDIR/etc/xdg

  It looks like this shouldn't be an issue as long as the migration scripts are
not called until after the /etc/profile.d/trinity.sh script is run (should be
run on X start. However, when I install packages, I install from runlevel 3, so
I'm not sure if the environment from either is set when the packages are
installed/upgraded. I know this isn't an issue for R14->R14 updates, but the
3.5.12 -> R14 update done in runlevel 3 would not have XDG_CONFIG_DIRS set, but
it would if run from runlevel 5.

  Will have more time later. I'll also do a cheat sheet for the 3.5.13-sru build
and pass that along.
