Public bug reported:

This is a bug in Kubuntu Intrepid Ibex with packages upgraded on
September 29, 2008.

Say you want to hide some application from your kids in the Applications
menu. Surely, it will not be Firefox but let's use it as an example so
that everyone can easily reproduce the bug. Copying single-entry-
test.menu quoted below into /etc/xdg/menus/kde4-applications-merged
should hide Firefox but it does not.

### single-entry-test.menu begins
<!DOCTYPE Menu PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD Menu 1.0//EN"
 "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/menu-spec/1.0/menu.dtd">

<Menu>
  <Menu>
    <Name>Internet</Name>
    <Exclude>
      <Filename>firefox.desktop</Filename>
    </Exclude>
  </Menu>
</Menu>
### single-entry-test.menu ends

Firefox will only be excluded from the menu if you duplicate its menu
entry:

<!DOCTYPE Menu PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD Menu 1.0//EN"
 "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/menu-spec/1.0/menu.dtd">

### double-entry-test.menu begins
<Menu>
  <Menu>
    <Name>Internet</Name>
    <Exclude>
      <Filename>firefox.desktop</Filename>
      <Filename>kde4-firefox.desktop</Filename>
    </Exclude>
  </Menu>
</Menu>
### double-entry-test.menu ends
