I also get this error. When I run alacarte from the terminal, I get the following output whenever I click "New item":
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line 311, in on_new_item_button_clicked process = subprocess.Popen(['gnome-desktop-item-edit', file_path], env=os.environ) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1239, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890287 Title: Main Menu "New Item" button isn't working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alacarte/+bug/890287/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
