That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alacarte/+bug/86025 "Binary package hint: alacarte http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/ Alacarte looks weird and menuless. Eg. help-menu has normally many important options: Translate this app, Report a bug, About & Program version etc.. ..."
None of the other programs in Preferences have menus either.
