menu editing with alacarte

[Paul Sutton]

Hi

just tried to install alacarte in order to edit the menu, lubuntu 12.10
fairly new install,  below seems to be the list of dependancies,
including unity stuff

given lubuntu is meant to be a low memory / diskspace distribution the
number of addiitonal packages required to simply edit the menus seems
crazy.   Does anyone have any suggestions please

Paul
