Yes, it was probably forgotten. The latest package was built  5 weeks ago so it's probably not a mirror sync issue.

Re: is alacarte broken after the upgrade?

This problem is the same as mine about gcompris, ...

the new package python (v.2.5 instead of 2.4.4) doesn't work with gnome-python ! Alacarte use gnome-python as gcompris. I'm afraid all applications which use gnome-python won't work anymore.

Is that a bug ??? Wrong package ???

The problem now it's not possible to type "undo" (to much packages were upgraded and they are all linked)

I guess you can edit menu without alacarte now, by right click on gnome menus.

alacarte is also having the same problem with the 64-bit repositories.  I've tried the 'Edit Menus' option you get when you right-click the menu, but it doesn't do anything.  It's too bad we can't install python 2.4 (say 'pacman -S python-2.4') along side python 2.5 temporarily until these things get sorted out.

menu right-click runs alacarte. AFAIK there is no other menu editor....

no, it runs gmenu-editor-simple (it's the one used prior to the borgification of alacarte by gnome), I've just tried, and it's still there... I thought they had disposed of it.

Yes, gmenu-simple-editor still works but it is barely basic. Can someone explain if there is another way to edit the menu?

Even gmenu-simple-editor isn't working for me (maybe it's just the 64-bit version that's having problems).  Might be related to the version of python again.

$ gmenu-simple-editor 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/gnome/bin/gmenu-simple-editor", line 28, in <module>
    GMenuSimpleEditor.main.main (sys.argv[1:])
  File "/opt/gnome/lib/python2.4/site-packages/GMenuSimpleEditor/main.py", line 28, in main
    import maindialog
  File "/opt/gnome/lib/python2.4/site-packages/GMenuSimpleEditor/maindialog.py", line 24, in <module>
    import gmenu
ImportError: /opt/gnome/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gmenu.so: undefined symbol: Py_InitModule4
