Same problem of everyone. Did someone make a work around for this problem???
It appears that the dependency is on: /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gmenu.so which was provided by the following in the last release: gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64 The gmenu.so library isn't found in the package.
It's also missing the following symbolic link: /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2 which should point to: /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2.4.13 If you copy the library files from Fedora 15 to Fedora 16, Menu Editing (alacarte) works fine.
Excuse my adding this in a third comment, I should have put it all in one. The problem is that the alacarte-0.13.2-3.fc16.noarch package has a dependency on gnome-menus-3.2.0.1-1.fc16.x86_64 package, which is met but that version of the gnome-menus package requires these omitted libraries: /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gmenu.so /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2 (link) /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2.4.13 They're present in the Fedora 15 package: gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64
This sounds like a good workaround but I cannot find 'gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64' in the stock repos. Where can I get that package from? Is there any plan to give an updated package (alacarte or gnome-menus) for F16 that resolves this?
I downloaded gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64 from this site: http://pkgs.org/fedora-15/fedora-x86_64/gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm.html Then I extracted the .rpm with the the following command (as root!): rpm2cpio gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm | cpio -ivd After copying (still as root) the three files mentioned in #49 manually to there locations alacarte starts fine now. Thanks for this workaround!
An alternative workaround is to use lxmed. You'll need java installed. Although this excuse, everything works well.
Here is a description of a fix. http://blog.mclaughlinsoftware.com/2011/11/24/gnome-menu-editing-fix/
-- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
Is there a fix in the works for this yet? I'd really rather not have to be copying files from different versions around as root, as that tends to snowball and soon you end up having to be root to do ANYthing... which means a new install in 6 months instead of just an upgrade. Thanks.
I tried compiling alacarte from git on Fedora 16. Following is a simplified story. I got the source by running git clone git://git.gnome.org/alacarte I tried applying patches from the GNOME bug 626220 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626220 The first patch appears to be applied already. The second patch conflicts with the third. As I understand, the second patch just changes the checks and the messages but doesn't affect the compilation, so I only applied the third patch. I ensured I had the dependencies for building alacarte by doing: yumdownloader --source alacarte rpmbuild --rebuild alacarte*.src.rpm I configured, compiled and installed alacarte from git by ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 make su make install I found that the get_separator function introduced by the patch is missing, so I applied an extra hack to avoid it: diff --git a/Alacarte/MainWindow.py b/Alacarte/MainWindow.py index b5fc35b..e85e25f 100644 --- a/Alacarte/MainWindow.py +++ b/Alacarte/MainWindow.py @@ -250,7 +250,7 @@ class MainWindow: self.item_store.clear() for item, show in self.editor.getItems(menu): menu_icon = None - if isinstance(item, GMenu.TreeSeparator): + if item == 'separator': name = '---' icon = None elif isinstance(item, GMenu.TreeEntry): diff --git a/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py b/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py index 3ca8a0e..24f9552 100644 --- a/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py +++ b/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py @@ -199,7 +199,7 @@ class MenuEditor: item_type = item_iter.next() while item_type != GMenu.TreeItemType.INVALID: if item_type == GMenu.TreeItemType.SEPARATOR: - item = item_iter.get_separator() + item = 'separator' yield (item, True) else: if item_type == GMenu.TreeItemType.ENTRY: With this, I got alacarte running. However, it doesn't do anything useful. It cannot create new menu items. Icons are not shown properly. There were some coredumps. So that may be a starting point for somebody who wants to make alacarte working. Don't worry about installing extra stuff. "make uninstall" appears to be working correctly. Speaking of Java implementations, they don't allow creating new items in the top-level Application menu, which is the main reason I need alacarte. I don't want to go into submenus to run xterm or Firefox. I'm not very enthusiastic about learning Python and GNOME internals, as I have a lot of stuff on my plate. I did my part, I tested the code.
> With this, I got alacarte running. However, > it doesn't do anything useful. It cannot > create new menu items. > Icons are not shown properly. I got it running OK using the 'steal 3 files from the fc15 rpm' kludge, /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2 /usr/lib64/libgnome-menu.so.2.4.13 and /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gmenu.so from gnome-menus-3.0.1-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm but after that, my experience with it running so far matches yours. No items I create with it actually show up in the menus, and even just changing the names or tooltip descriptions of an existing shortcut (e.g. so gnome-system-monitor and ksysguard have different shortcut names in the menu) does not show up.
Same problem here with alacarte. Add me to the list of "holding our breath".
You should join the list at # 752238 too, since it's the same bug. :-)
I'm sure this will be fixed soon, but in the mean time people who want to change their menu items can work around this bug by editing the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications/.

The problem still occurs on Fedora 17.
I started alacarte on fedora 17 running gnome 3.4 and it crashed immediately Here is the output from running it from the terminal *** (process:18725): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GMountMountFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' ** (process:18725): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GDriveStartFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' ** (process:18725): WARNING **: Trying to register gtype 'GSocketMsgFlags' as enum when in fact it is of type 'GFlags' Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 22, in <module> from Alacarte.MainWindow import MainWindow File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line 19, in <module> import gtk, gmenu, gobject, gio ImportError: No module named gmenu Package: alacarte-0.13.2-3.fc16 OS Release: Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle)

alacarte 0.13.3 was released recently, and it's supposed to address those issues. I tried it both on Fedora 16 and Fedora 17, but could not get it to work. Maybe the Fedora packagers could backport the new alacarte to the versions of GNOME shipped by Fedora?

Now with alacarte-0.13.4-4.fc17 it launches, but doesn't hide entries from Applications menu.
Some thing on Fedora 16. The package builds and runs. However, no items can be created/deleted or enabled/disabled. Only property editing is working. Users will be greatly disappointed. But it's better than a package that doesn't run at all and triggers abrt. At least there would be no automatic reports about a well known problem. There is a lot of development done on alacarte upstream, so I invite everyone who has time and knowledge to work on the upstream code.
(note the fedora maintainer and upstream maintainer of alacarte are the same person)
Creating items works fine where in F18. I do notice that the new items do not show up in the category I create them in the shell overview though - I created a 'test' item in accessories, launching gnome-terminal, and it showed up next to the gnome-terminal launcher in 'system tools'

Please please, let Alacarte die. :) It's a real mess about reading all that constant howling for a well working menu editor that works for all desktop environments. Xfce tried to adopt the specifications made originally by the Gnome team in times where Gnome2 was the state of the art and it was changed again for Gnome3. I don't know what counts for KDE and those different single window managers only. Okay, Fedora goes with Gnome3 and there are those both serious spins Xfce and KDE - I guess the remaining stuff does not count really here.

(In reply to comment #102) I need alacarte to edit menus on LXDE. I would prefer to use an utility that doesn't depend on GNOME, but it doesn't exist. I would prefer to have a desktop-independent menu specification and a desktop-independent menu editor, but it's outside the scope of this issue. alacarte is needed to edit menus currently used by some of the desktop environments shipped by Fedora.
(In reply to comment #107) > (In reply to comment #102) > I need alacarte to edit menus on LXDE. I would prefer to use an utility > that doesn't depend on GNOME, but it doesn't exist. There's lxmed. Unfortunately, it is written in Java and therefore needs a JVM. > I would prefer to have > a desktop-independent menu specification and a desktop-independent menu > editor, but it's outside the scope of this issue. I know that my comment #102 is fully outside of this bug report. I could not resist with my general comment any more, at least cause of the amount of commitment already here. Sorry about that. Everyone seems to whine about a missing menu editor that fits its special user needs, but nobody starts to code. Why? > alacarte is needed to > edit menus currently used by some of the desktop environments shipped by > Fedora. +1 Though, there should be something that integrates better into Xfce and LXDE. But outside of this scope. :)

The desktop menu spec is a Freedesktop standard: http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/ and is well respected by GNOME, KDE, LXDE and Xfce. it has not changed in any significant way between the time of GNOME 2 and that of GNOME 3. So I'm not really sure what you're talking about...
