Bug Description

When the GNOME session is chosen the libappmenu.so module is loaded anyway, so that, if you use a gnome-shell theme with a transparent background, you can see the app menu behind it.

Fix is very simple, just add a desktop session check to /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80appmenu and /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80appmenu-gtk3
Mine looks like this:

if [ -f /usr/lib/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so ] && [ "x$DESKTOP_SESSION" = "xubuntu" ]
then
 export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"
fi
