    <!-- It's been three minor versions of GNOME since this was put in.
         Let's comment it out for now.
    <note>
      <para>
        If you are upgrading from GNOME-3.28.x or GNOME-3.30.x, a command
        must be run to reset the menu structure. This is due to a major change
        involving <application>Sundry</application> application folder removal.
        If you are upgrading, run the following command (as root), and then
        log in and out of your session.
