Raspberry Pi OS • Minior bug: System Tools menu in Main Menu

$

I am using the 2023-12-05 64 bit release on a Raspberry Pi 5.

If I open the Main Menu, there is no System Tools section.

If I open the Main Menu Editor, it exists and is enabled

and if I look in that menu, there is one launcher enabled (Htop). It seems like the menu should be present.

If I disable this launcher and enable it again, the System Tools menu appears as expected, even though I haven't changed anything overall. I have basically zero experience of LXDE, but I suspect a config file was changed without running the appropriate code/function that is normally run by the editor when it makes changes, and doing what I did regenerates files for the menu from the config file. It seems like it is the cached menu that is not properly updated

Code:

~/.cache/menus/6a04bc69d2bb93d12344bd26805fb4ca
(the name is formed of a hash of the filename and some other environment variables I think, so remains stable, at least in one release).

It is a very minor bug, but it would be worth fixing this for a future release of the Raspberry Pi OS if someone has time. I'm afraid I'm not bothered enough to look into how LXDE works and do it myself at the moment though, so I'm posting in case someone else wants to.
