Main menu entry for GVim not created when installing vim-gtk

[Description]
On a fresh 11.10 Lubuntu install no Main Menu -> Accessories entry is created for 'GVim Text Editor' when installing package vim-gtk even though there is a gvim .desktop file located in /usr/share/applications (.desktop file created by vim-gui-common as far as I can tell).

As I understand it LXDE looks for .desktop files in /usr/share/applications to populate the menu. Despite the presence of a gvim.desktop file, still nothing.

I have managed to get the menu entry to appear by opening /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop as root in vim and simply resaving it without making any changes. After doing this GVim is listed in the Main Menu -> Accessories menu.

Furthermore, once the menu item has appeared (using method above), uninstalling vim-gtk does not remove the menu entry. It remains there but has no effect when clicked. In order for it to go away you must do a re-intsallation of package vim-gui-common.

[Expected Result]
Main menu entry is created when vim-gtk is installed, menu item is removed when vim-gtk is uninstalled.

[Actual Result]
Main menu entry is not created when vim-gtk is installed. Can be remedied by manually re-saving /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop

Main menu entry is not removed when uninstalling vim-gtk. User must also reinstall vim-gui-common package (which is where the gvim.desktop file comes from.

[Steps To Reproduce]
1. Fresh install of 11.10 Lubuntu (vim-gui-common installed by default, gvim.desktop already present in /usr/share/applications)
2. Install vim-gtk
3. Open main menu -> Accessories, note GVim is not present
5. Open terminal, run 'sudo vim /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop', simply resave file by typing ':w' followed by enter
6.Open main menu -> Accessories, note GVim is now present
