Thats easier than removing all the stuff manually in synaptic before 
installation.
But how to add a new menu or a new item.

Click on New Item results in this:

   File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line 311, in 
on_new_item_button_clicked
     process = subprocess.Popen(['gnome-desktop-item-edit', file_path], 
env=os.environ)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__
     errread, errwrite)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1239, in _execute_child
     raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden


Greetings
Josef
