Bug Description
* I'm running on the 64bit version of Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 17.10
Release: 17.10
apt-cache policy wmaker-common
wmaker-common:
Installed: 0.95.8-2
Candidate: 0.95.8-2
Version table:

Attempts to open the WPrefs from the gui fails with:
Could not execute command "/usr/share/
If I try to open from the command line with openapp:
openapp /usr/share/
Could not find /usr/share/
And ls -a:
ls -a /usr/share/
. .. tiff WPrefs.tiff WPrefs.xpm
The WPrefs.app/Wprefs script appears to just be missing.
I'm stupid it's a path issue. The script is located in /usr/lib/ GNUstep/ System/ Applications/ WPrefs. app/WPrefs.
A ln -sf to where wmaker looks for WPrefs resolved the issue.
