2011-09-29 12:15:35 phobie description $ quickly edit crashes if gedit is not installed. This problem can be replicated with 11.04-0ubuntu1.1 on natty and 11.10-0ubuntu1 on oneiric. It is not a duplicate of #483917 because there is no dependency problem. $ EDITOR=gnome-text-editor quickly edit works without problems if kate is installed... quickly edit should chose a alternate editor if gedit is not present, use /etc/alternatives/gnome-text-editor instead of gedit or the package needs to depend on gedit directly instead of "gedit | editor". It might also be a good idea to introduce /etc/alternatives/x-editor or /etc/alternatives/x-text-editor . $ quickly edit crashes if gedit is not installed. This problem can be replicated with 11.04-0ubuntu1.1 on natty and 11.10-0ubuntu1 on oneiric. It is related to but not a direct duplicate of #483917 . $ EDITOR=gnome-text-editor quickly edit works without problems if kate is installed... quickly edit should chose a alternate editor if gedit is not present. I.e. by using /etc/alternatives/gnome-text-editor instead of gedit or letting the package depend on gedit directly instead of "gedit | editor". Since none of the editors providing /etc/alternatives/gnome-text-editor lists a virtual package names gnome-text-editor under "Provides:" we can not depend on that. It might also be a good idea to introduce /etc/alternatives/x-text-editor .
