mint updates break mint's elegant xfce menu. first login asks whether you want to keep, migrate or replace the old menu. it doesn't matter what you choose. apparently the old menu in incompatible with the new update.
i did not want to manually code the xfce menu, to avoid incompatibilities with future mint updates. reluctantly, i had to use the memory-hungry but presentable gnome-menu instead.
