Public bug reported:

The xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu in "trusty" does not properly interpret
<OnlyUnallocated/> and <Exclude> perimeters in freedesktop menu
specifications. In "raring" it did. libgaracon-1-0 does not seem to be
the issue, as the Applications menu available when right-clicking on the
Xubuntu desktop does not suffer from the issue, nor does the new
"Whisker Menu."

Whenever a foo.desktop files are placed within a sub-menu (e.g.,
CardGame) of a freedesktop.org registered main menu category (e.g.,
Games), the entire main menu category fails to read. It reads as
expected in the Applications menu available when right-clicking on the
Xubuntu desktop.

So, in xfce-applications.menu, when all foo.desktop files are in sub-
menus, the entire main menu category is gone. To get the main category
back, I must comment out the Exclude element, which results in DUPLICATE
entries in both the Main and Sub-Menu.

<!-- <Exclude>
            <Filename>DJL.desktop</Filename>
</Exclude> -->

The same behavior happens when using <OnlyUnallocated/>.  When all
foo.desktop files are allocated in to sub-menus, the entire main menu
category is gone. To get the main category back, I must comment out the
Exclude element, which again results in DUPLICATE entries in both the
Main and Sub-Menu.

See the attached screenshots.
