[Bug 1305348] Re: Can't edit drop down applications menus in Edubuntu Trusty flashback session

 

I recently upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 with Gnome (classic on 12.04 and FlashBack on 14.04) and I have the same issue than the others.
I can give you the ouputs you required.
1) echo $XDG_MENU_PREFIX
gnome-

2) cat /usr/share/applications/gnome-panel.desktop

Title:
  Can't edit drop down applications menus in Edubuntu Trusty flashback
  session

Status in gnome-panel package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  If you try to edit the drop-down applications menus in Edubuntu Trusty
  the Main Menu "buttons" still map to "alacarte" but that no longer
  works after bug #1267787 was fixed.

  But I can work around it by running this command "alacarte gnome-
  flashback-applications.menu", then if I open either of the Main Menu
  "buttons" I can click on properties and edit the command to be
  "alacarte gnome-flashback-applications.menu" instead of "alacarte".

  Any thoughts? Could we just change that command by default?
