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
