When I run alacarte I get the following error.

$ alacarte
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 36, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 32, in main

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line

    self.editor = MenuEditor()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py", line

    self.__loadMenus()
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Alacarte/MenuEditor.py", line

    self.applications.path = os.path.join(util.getUserMenuPath(),
self.applications.tree.get_menu_file())
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/posixpath.py", line 65, in join
    if b.startswith('/'):

I've run python-updater and there's no change.

Is this a corrupt program?

Thanks,
