Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04

alacarte:
Installed: 0.11.10-0ubuntu1

I tried editting my menu through both right click on applications and system >
preferences > main menu.
Both methods resulted in me waiting for something to happen but nothing came
along.
I needed sudoers rights to get it running through commandline. (No popup
for requesting sudoers authentications comes up when using the graphical
method)
Debug output:
l...@luc-laptop:~$ alacarte
Traceback (most recent call last):

I've read there were simillear problems with 8.04 hardy, but it's still
not fixed.
