Bug Description

Dear all,

I found the following issue:

1. Open a terminal
2. Run mpsyt (package: mps-youtube)
3. Quit mpsyt (press q)

The terminal window name keeps showing "Terminal - mpsyt" but it should actually revert to "Terminal" because I have quit mpsyt.

Please see also the attached screenshot.

Thank you!

Robert

It actually helps to use the following command:

$ export PS1="\[$(xtitle \`pwd\`)\]$oldprompt"

This does refresh the window name after exiting mpsyt.

Can we somehow incorporate this into the upstream package?

I have checked in Xubuntu 18.04.1, and it works just fine.

Did you test with the default .bashrc?

Dear Theo,

I am sorry but I am no longer able to reproduce it.

Please consider this solved.

Yours,
