I've also noticed this (Xubuntu 12.10 amd64). Nothing in alacarte actually does anything. Deleting items doesn't do anything, except sometimes it does work for the top two entries (Web Browser and Mail Reader). Hiding items doesn't work. Showing hidden items doesn't work. After changing the show toggle, the settings mysteriously revert back after a couple of seconds. Adding new menus or menu items doesn't do anything either. It's obvious from within alacarte that's something's wrong.
I've also tried running alacarte from the command line, to see if any error messages print out. Nothing. I tried running it using sudo and gksudo, but those both failed in different ways. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069207 Title: Unable to edit or add items to main menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alacarte/+bug/1069207/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
