I would also skip asking to select a profile if screen is run with '-m' option. Or may be, when $TERM is not set.
I had a headless remote system behind a NAT which ran something like 'screen -d -m ssh -R ... exthost' in its startup scripts (more exactly, in cron @reboot line for certain user), to eastablish a port forwarding so that I could access it inside NAT connecting from 'exthost'. Once I had upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty, having installed recommended screen-profiles package during the course. To play well by your current rules, I had either to run screen from under that user and select a profile for further use, or, to remove screen-profiles package before a reboot. Anyway, then I was not so omniscient and experienced in upgrade to Jaunty and all surprises this ensues, so after the reboot I have lost this screen-ssh which once made reverse tunnel for me, losing the access to the system 120 km away from me, and there is not much people whom I could ask to do the proper thing at this place. So, I would like very much is screen-profile wrapper don't ask to select a profile is there is '-m' option in screen command line, or if there is no $TERM variable in the environment. Don't know if it is worth to create another bug for my request, hope that reopening this one will suffice. -- please don't bother me with a prompt about profiles https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330322 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
