Bug Description

when opening up alacarte menu editor, there are duplicate entries for evolution to add to the Applications-->Office submenu. Furthermore, there are duplicate entries for evolution in both the Applications-->Internet and Applications-->Office submenus. This seems to go against Ubuntu's and gnome's minimalism.

Thanks for your report. For the second part of it: bug 54278 already states that one of them is for evolution as the groupware suite and the other one specifically for the mail component. Why alacarte shows two entries, I'm not sure.

That's because of the evolution-2.2 compatibility desktop shipped with the package for people upgrading (the version used to be written to the panel configuration which is an user setting and is not modifiable on upgrade)

the issue is similar to bug #30692, the compatibility entry which is there for upgrades is not a bug
