[Bug 975299] Re: gnome-panel and exo-utils should not be recommended by Alacarte package

[Lionel Le Folgoc]

Without gnome-panel/exo-utils, alacarte is rather limited (e.g. you
can't create/edit desktop files...).

Title:
  gnome-panel and exo-utils should not be recommended by Alacarte
  package

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I think gnome-panel and exo-utils should not be recommended by Alacarte package.
  Indeed, Alacarte is a menu editor for the GNOME desktop but the Gnome-Panel and the Xfce-Panel are not the only one with a Gnome-Menu (e.g. made with libgnome-menu).
  Cairo-Dock (but I'm sure there is also other applications) also uses libgnome-menu in order to have a "Gnome-Menu-like" and we can use Cairo-Dock without Gnome/XFCE Panel.

  This is why I'm proposing to no longer recommend these two packages.
  But of course we can add them as suggestions.

  This bzr branch has been linked to this bug report: lp:~matttbe/ubuntu/precise/alacarte/975299
  This branch should be ready to be pushed on lp:ubuntu/alacarte

  Thank you
