2009-04-25 11:12:54 Paul Gevers description Binary package hint: winff NB. I haven't been able to recreate this bug so I'm not sure what caused it. However I am reporting it and a fix as a record of its exsistance. Hope that's cool :/ I installed winff and got the error; x-terminal-emulator: error: Expected zero additional arguments, found 1 A little investigation revealed that /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator was symlinked to /usr/bin/terminator which I had installed previously. To solve the bug I created the correct symlink, /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper. Winff now works as it should. terminator does not honour the -e option as xterm does. It claims it is an alternative for x-terminal-emulator so it must honor it as the option -x in terminator. ----- Original report ----- Binary package hint: winff NB.
