Integrate terminator into GNOME Preferred applications

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

Would be nice if Terminator was integrated in gnome-default-applications-properties, so you can set it to launch terminator when a terminal is required (it's actually possible by entering the command manually).

[Nicolas Valcarcel (nvalcarcel)]

That would be a nice feature, thanks for your suggestion.

To have Terminator listed there it looks like we need to be listed in:
/usr/share/gnome-control-center/gnome-default-applications.xml

Now that Terminator is in Universe, perhaps it is reasonable to patch this xml file in Ubuntu?

[Nicolas Valcarcel (nvalcarcel)]

Attaching debdiff with the solution.

Could anybody send that on bugzilla.gnome.org? They are rolling new tarballs next week and responsive so they would likely commit the change

Gnome developers has include this on the oficial release, we need to wait to import their changes or upload our ones?

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (pochu)]

Nicolas,

There will probably be a new tarball this Monday for the GNOME 2.21.91 release. So we will have this uploaded soon. No need to patch the package.

      read-only source
    common:
