In the amd64 and i386 karmic packages the file in question is still
broken.

I don't have time to test the install (this tool is on a net book
required for work), but inspection of the package shows that the path in
the file in question (`/usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop') now
attempts to point to a script that intelligently chooses which su-root
command to use (nice fix), however the file name for that script (from
inspection of the package should be `/usr/share/zenmap/su-to-zenmap.sh')
is incorrectly defined in the menu definition, reflecting the build
environment:
`/build/buildd/nmap-5.00/debian/tmp/usr/share/zenmap/su-to-zenmap.sh'

Sorry I can't test this, but I hope the information is helpful
nonetheless.
