Bug Description

After upgrading from UNR 10.04 to 10.10, some of the favorites from the launcher main screen were lost. This occurred on two separate computers which are not able to run the new interface. When I selected the UNR 2d option, only certain favorites were retained. For example, on one computer I had 9 favorites before the upgrade and only 4 after the upgrade.

I was able to reproduce this using virtualbox.

Install 10.04 unr with all the default options
Add several items to the favorites screen
Upgrade to 10.10
Choose the UNR 2D option
Only some favorites remain

summary: - favorites lost on upgrade to maverick
+ unr favorites lost on upgrade to maverick

In 10.04, my favorites were firefox, evolution, cheese, empathy, ubuntu software center, openoffice spreadsheet, open office writer, update manager, and fspot. After upgrading to 10.10, only openoffice spreadsheet, open office writer, update manager, and fspot remained.

I know that netbook-launcher-efl changed its favorite path as discussed with Oliver or relied to the netbook-launcher ones. But as there is no more netbook-launcher favorites, I think they lost them.

Setting to the right package.
