Hey.

Just noted that cinnamon-common contains a danlging symlink:
/etc/xdg/menus/cinnamon-applications-merged

is that on purpose?

Cheers,
Chris.

Hi, from
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/blob/c8afc034e8a6d7f1c44856087bf6d1ee0109fedf/src/cinnamon-app-system.c#L141
 From a fast search I found also this issue that seems to require it:
https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/1574

if you know of a better way to replace this and have everything working
try bringing it upstream
