I tried to install DIA from the Software Center and from the Terminal (dia and dia-gnome), but it didn't seem to work. I couldn't find DIA in the Application Menu and I also couldn't find it by searching.

Any ideas?

Dia cannot be found in the application centre. You have to launch by typing the command dia from the terminal or from Alt+F2.

I think this is a bug in 13.04.

Hope this helps.

  • This works, but it is very impractical. Is there a workaround? – damdimdum Jun 02 '13 at 14:04
  • @damdimdum For the meantime you can create a custom application launcher for the Unity sidebar, have a look at this question & answer - http://askubuntu.com/questions/137154/how-does-one-recreate-a-custom-application-launcher-that-takes-command-line-synt – kingmilo Jun 02 '13 at 15:15

Dia is an editor for diagrams, graphs, charts etc. There is support for UML static structure diagrams (class diagrams), Entity-Relationship diagrams, network diagrams and much more. Diagrams can be exported to postscript and many other formats.

This package contains the GNOME version of Dia.
