Bug#922472: gnome-menus-blacklist: not found

Package: gnome-menus
Version: 3.31.4-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Upon trying to install the latest Discord .deb package, I have come across this
issue. Exploring the contents of the Discord .deb file, I could find nothing
related to gnome-menus in particular so I'm assuming the problem is in the
gnome-menus package and not deriving from installing a third-party .deb.

As a workaround, I deleted my gnome-menus package, installed the Discord .deb
and then reinstalled gnome-menus (which is required by menulibre, otherwise I'd
just leave it uninstalled). Through this workaround, every step worked normally
without any errors or warnings.

A big thank you to everyone involved in maintaining these packages!

Here's the console output in question:
