Public bug reported: Binary package hint: alacarte
Working with edubuntu with many users (I have about 500 students on my edubuntu system) it's very important to have a way to modify all the users' menus in a snapshot. In dapper it was easy: "sudo smeg --root". Unfortunatly that's not possible in edgy. That feature isn't in edgy's alacarte. Alacarte only permits to edit user specific menus, and it is impossible to add or delete a menu enty for all users on a machine with alacarte without launching it for each user, or asking each user to do it himself by following a procedure... In my case it's important, because with 40 clients I need to deactivate all the graphic education programs, because they eat rapidly all the processor cpu time. Also I need to remove the games from the menu, because the students are tempted to use them and they don't work in the teaching. ** Affects: alacarte (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Alacarte lack a way to change all the users' menu in a snapshot https://launchpad.net/bugs/72857 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
