Package: xfce4-terminal Version: 0.4.8-1+b1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 11.8.3
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 xfce4-terminal declares that it provide x-terminal-emulator, but it fails to support the -e option in the way described in the policy (instead, the - -x option does that). paul@wollumbin ~ $ xfce4-terminal -e sleep 5 Unknown option "5" paul@wollumbin ~ $ xfce4-terminal -x sleep 5 # window pops up for 5 seconds and disappears paul@wollumbin ~ $ xterm -e sleep 5 # window pops up for 5 seconds and disappears paul@wollumbin ~ $ Please don't provide x-terminal-emulator if your package doesn't meet the requirements (other packages depend on that behavior). I believe gnome-terminal in Debian proves a wrapper for itself to make -e behave as it should for x-terminal-emulator. You could do the same if you want to keep providing x-terminal-emulator. - -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (99, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xfce4-terminal depends on: ii exo-utils 0.6.2-5 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.8-1+deb7u1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100.2-1 ii libexo-1-0 0.6.2-5 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-5 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libvte9 1:0.28.2-5 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1+deb7u1 ii libxfce4util4 4.8.2-1 Versions of packages xfce4-terminal recommends: ii dbus-x11 1.6.8-1+deb7u1 xfce4-terminal suggests no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJR/VS0AAoJEJxcmesFvXUK8iMH/38++NPByIYHzV/k9/4phwQ5 JF8eKO8a2Jslu+F2P1PzXhoNz8BHKVXX8bS0ZspppBsggO35+P/l70HlHXOsTyrI xMN+Pnwkfrbp5bipxXy2/YzRgnbBhkzVDu+f+VdiRMT3iIs1uVyq2R66sLt0rFjZ on9xv6/LWtfEuhpsg16FgnTiX7KAhbxzwQMkouCzICO/J1eks5UvsnyjH84j/j9y dFVwPrk+lZV7+8wWtAUG3lf1W8y8lcIANzNRGhd6lVPoZlS1ed7ny0yoJSD40ADC rbhFts4qixV6GLxy1LoGx4h8U5E7Dy5ge9JVwkdevPJW3YiDQb4wryEqOhajZsE= =63sZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
