I cannot create a new launcher anywhere (either in the normal GNOME desktop or Unity).
No action when I right-click the desktop and select Create Launcher...
.
At last I tried to create launcher, and I got the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line 312, in on_new_item_button_clicked
process = subprocess.Popen(['gnome-desktop-item-edit', file_path], env=os.environ)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 672, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1213, in _execute_child
raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] Directory or file does not exist.
What is wrong?

As you yourself stated in a comment, the solution is to install
gnome-panel
sudo apt-get install gnome-panel
should do the trick.
