Thanks for the info. As this change caused problems for other packages
(#737112), too, a heads-up would have been nice. I really cannot read
all scm logs of all the deps of my ~ 150 packages.

Look into /etc/xdg/menus or /usr/share/desktop-directories and tell me
which files belong to which package. 

All files are properly prefixed, only the  GNOME and the redhat-menu
ones are not. redhat-menus even references on of the GNOME files without
depending on it and this problem was not spotted during the review.
