Hi,

It seems that you've opened 3 identical support requests, it would help lots if you closed all but one of them so all the replies are in the same place.

When I get home I'll look into your problem for you.

Thanks,
 Matt

Hi,
 if you can't find it, you can create it again in the menu.
 I'm in Edgy so I don't have Alacarte but a far as I recall they look the same so here's what you can do:
 1- Right click in "Applications"
 2- Make a new entry.
 3- in the command for this new entry, code:
     gksudo gnome-app-install

 You should have it back.
 If it does not work, you need to check if it's still installed. For that:
 sudo aptitude update
 sudo aptitude install gnome-app-install
