* [gentoo-user] Gnome "Edit Menus"

After the last update when I got Gnome 2.26 Most everything the the main
application menu was gone.  I right clicked on the main app panel and
selected "Edit Menus" and after making a few changes I pressed "Revert"
and now "Edit Menus" doesn't work at all.  The window doesn't even come up.

How can I fix this?  Does anyone know the command line for "Edit Menus"?

Thanks,

dhk

To run Gnome menu editor try

    $ alacarte

Also see in ~/.config/menus for menu backups. You can replace current
menu (applications.menu) with older file (applications.menu.undo-*).

And read Gnome 2.26 Upgrade Guide section about menu file-collision:

When I run alacarte I get the following error.

$ alacarte
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 36, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 32, in main
    app = MainWindow(datadir, version, sys.argv)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line
48, in __init__
    self.editor = MenuEditor()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py", line
36, in __init__
    self.__loadMenus()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py", line
42, in __loadMenus
    self.applications.path = os.path.join(util.getUserMenuPath(),
self.applications.tree.get_menu_file())
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/posixpath.py", line 65, in join
    if b.startswith('/'):
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith'

I've run python-updater and there's no change.

Is this a corrupt program?

Thanks,
dhk

Which version of x11-misc/alacarte you use? See bug 282337:

I'm using alacarte 0.12.1, and that looks like the bug.  Now to fix it.
 Thanks.
