You can either:

run the command (as super user)

update-menus -v

or wait until 4:00 AM when cron runs or install anacron if your machine isn't 
always on.

Just for grins and giggles you could also run the following "compound" command 
as super user:

rpm rebuilddb && updatedb && update-menus -n -v && ldconfig

to do everything all sequentially that likely needs to be done after a large 
update.

Have fun!
