Thank you very much, Andy.
I agree that line above should be the last one, inasmuch as roxterm runs even
in that machine, i.e., it seems to have been completely installed. What annoyed
me was that I have scripted two more instructions after install, for icon and
.desktop, and have to run them by hand. Also I like having the install logged
by paco, but it could't be done in this case.
Found obvious trivial solution! Changed the script, removing the "&&" at the
EOL, so the error is displayed but does not stops it to complete.
My problem may be due to other rox* in that machine. I was trying to choose a
file manager, so tried many: mc, thunar, pacmanfm and rox. When trying rox, I
used used 0install, have many directories with that and with rox-all, etc.
Tried moving out all old rox related, but problem persisted.
Finally, must say that I was suspicious about roxterm, and would stick to
terminator, and start a discussion asking for it in the book.
However, both do essentially the same, with main difference being how to
customize, so *I can live with roxterm*. The most important similarity is
having tabs *and* drag and drop re-ordering of terminals, lxterminal lacks this.
The things I see terminator excels roxterm are "simultaneous typing to
arbitrary groups of terminals" and the possibility to divide the terminal
window with a grid of terminals:

the last image is referred to as "ridiculous" by the author
Although very interesting, I never used those but grid, just for curiosity.
Thanks again.
