This is NOT a duplicate of #1079953 And 12.04 is a LTS support version, so a fix for 13.10 is not relevant. The proper URL for the stable release updates is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates
The feature is completely broken in 12.04 LTS due tothe missing dependency. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1079953 Main Menu Editor alacarte is Completely Broken in xubuntu 12.10 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alacarte in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251022 Title: Menu editor alacarte is completely non-functional in Ubuntu 12.04 (applied patch did not take) Status in “alacarte” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: While bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alacarte/+bug/1079953 is closed, the issue persists. With alacarte 0.13.2-2ubuntu4 on Ubuntu 12.04, nothing works. Pressing *New Item* or *Properties* results in a crash. Checkbox actions don't take. And inexplicably "[x] report an error" does nothing.
