I cannot open the menu editor (menulibre)

Question

I cannot open the Menu Editor in Xubuntu 18.04. either via the Settings Manager (as shown in the picture) or via terminal (command menulibre)

When I execute menulibre in the terminal i get following error message:

AttributeError: module 'menulibre' has no attribute 'main'

I have reinstalled menulibre through the package manager but the error persists.

How can I run the Menu Editor again?

As a make-shift solution I found the alacarte menu editing tool, which is in the standard distro repository.

I could expediently install it with the Synaptic Package Manager or, alternatively, run following in terminal

sudo apt-get install alacarte

It is not so full featured as menulibre, but, at least I can edit the Menu at GUI. :)
