I have installed openbox-menu (0.5.1-2) and this package
(libgarcon-common) as one of its dependencies. I wish to use
openbox-menu to generate a menu from the file xfce-applications.menu
found in libgarcon-common. However, this fails with an error:
------------------------------------------
$ openbox-menu xfce-applications.menu

** (openbox-menu:9684): WARNING **: Can't get menu root directory
$
------------------------------------------

I did discover that if I change line five of xfce-applications from
    <Name>Xfce</Name>
to
    <Name>Applications</Name>
then it works as it should.
