Yes, indeed, I'm sorry about this, but you'll have to use the 'long names' =
for know.
Although the append method is properly defined for a GtkMenuShell and its c=
hild,
see:

	http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile-gnome.git/tree/defs/gnome/defs/gtk.=
defs#n11977

and not being overridden anywhere, AFAICT, it does not make its way to the =
user :)

This an almost 10y old version :). Not your fault of course, but I strongly
recommend you to purge this version ('aptitude purge' or 'apt-get purge') a=
nd
install using this tarball instead (an official release is on its way, but =
I've no
idea when, so better grab this version now :)):


	http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/grip/guile-cairo/
		guile-cairo-1.10.0.tar.gz
	=09

https://www.gnu.org/software/guile-gnome/


 	http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/grip/guile-cairo/
 		guile-cairo-1.10.0.tar.gz
 		guile-cairo-1.10.0.tar.gz.sig [1]

Dito, I recommend to purge all guile-gnome-* packages and install using the=
 latest
stable release:

	Except for guile-cairo which you should install as described above,
	carefully read the instructions and you will be fine!

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suf=
fix) is
intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding
tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

        gpg --verify guile-cairo-1.10.0.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, then =
run this
command to import it:

        gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys A3057AD7
