(No sign of triggers, it's just that emacs21 gets configured before menu.) That one might be arch-related: | kbsd:/home/kibi# which update-menus | /usr/bin/update-menus | kbsd:/home/kibi# ls -l /usr/bin/update-menus | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 113028 jun 8 13:13 /usr/bin/update-menus That's on GNU/kFreeBSD. I still have to investigate why, but it looks like if [ -x /usr/bin/update-menus ] returns true even with the above-mentioned conditions.
