The same, or at least very similar bug (perhaps a regression?) happening on Xenial 16.04 64 bit.
Output: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release: 16.04 dpkg -l zenmap Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============-============-============-================================= ii zenmap 7.01-2ubuntu all The Network Mapper Front End dpkg -L zenmap|grep desktop /usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop /usr/share/applications/zenmap.desktop Seems the package puts both root and non-root .desktop files in /usr/share/applications and this is not shown in the menus! Oddly, something, most likely a prior version of the package, also from Ubuntu repositories (since I've never installed it from other repos or source), has left a non-root .desktop in /usr/share/app- install/desktop/zenmap:zenmap.desktop as shown below: ls -la $(locate *zenmap*.desktop) -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 398 сеп 10 2015 /usr/share/app-install/desktop/zenmap:zenmap.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 277 мар 31 2016 /usr/share/applications/zenmap.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 308 мар 31 2016 /usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop That top .desktop file seems to be the only one working, as shown in the attached screenshot. And yes, this is Lubuntu, though the bug appears to affect multiple Ubuntu variants, and is not Lubuntu specific, the original poster was on Ubuntu himself, since his screenshot shows Unity! ** Attachment added: "No root access on menu" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nmap/+bug/1263311/+attachment/5055662/+files/No_root_access_zenmap.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263311 Title: zenmap as root not displayed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nmap/+bug/1263311/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
