On my Lucid Alpha 1 (clean install, up-to-date as of today) I can't find any menu items which would trigger the described error messages.
ankspo71, was this a fresh install or an upgrade? You could take a look at /usr/share/desktop-directories and ~/.local/share/desktop-directories/ and verify that they contain files with the .directory extension. Do you get the exception also when trying to open properties of a launcher (not a folder)? If so, the exception should be a bit different. You could add the statement: print file_path above line 377 (and indented similarly to the surrounding lines) of /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/Alacarte/MainWindow.py and see what file paths Alacarte prints out when you click on the "Properties" button. It looks like some of the file names lack an extension and cause the exception you described. -- I can not edit menu entries in alacarte at random - Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/499754 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
