[Dapper] Alacarte Menu Editor

[Jason Aubrey]

Hi All,

My alacarte menu editor is broken.  If I follow the menus it starts to
start but then quits.  I reinstalled it and it's still broken.  Here is
some output from trying to run it from a terminal.  If you can tell from
this what's up I would be very grateful.
