Public bug reported: GNOME Console should support x-terminal-emulator as used by the Debian alternatives system.
In Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and earlier releases, the default global open in terminal keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+T) uses the x-terminal-emulator alternative. (This is an Ubuntu-specific patch based on a very old GNOME feature.) Once we switch the default terminal app to GNOME Console, we'll probably temporarily change the keyboard shortcut to use 'kgx' directly but we'd like to keep using the same x-terminal-emulator way instead. There is a proposed merge proposal upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/console/-/merge_requests/87 And then there's a little bit of Debian packaging that needs to be done to register the app with the Debian alternatives system and set the default priority. ** Affects: gnome-console Importance: Unknown Status: New ** Affects: gnome-console (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Affects: gnome-console (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Tags: kinetic ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #1008805 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008805 ** Also affects: gnome-console (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008805 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/console/-/issues #26 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/console/-/issues/26 ** Also affects: gnome-console via https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/console/-/issues/26 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1977767 Title: Ctrl+Alt+T should open GNOME Console To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-console/+bug/1977767/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
