Menulibre should not be used on ubuntustudio, it does not deal with the
system menu configuration files correctly. It uses the default menu
template as it's base rather than what the system happens to be using. I
personally feel ubuntustudio should not ship any menu editor as alacarte,
while it does work ok, still does not do the whole job. Menu configuration
as actually quite complex and a menu editor is almost impossible to
properly test. Unfortunately menulibre replaces the whole system menu with
it's own (wrong) version. Even if it was right, any addition or change to
the system menu after that will not show up either (such as adding wine).
