Package: terminal.app
Version: 0.9.8-1+nmu1+b2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 11.8.3

Dear Maintainer,

Quoting policy:

>To be an x-terminal-emulator, a program must:

> * Be able to emulate a DEC VT100 terminal, or a compatible terminal.

> * Support the command-line option -e command, which creates a new terminal 
> window[106] and runs the specified command, interpreting the entirety of the 
> rest of the command line as a command to pass straight to exec, in the manner 
> that xterm does.

> * Support the command-line option -T title, which creates a new terminal 
> window with the window title title.

/usr/bin/Terminal appears to not have *any*, options, not even `--help`.

Until (or unless) this is implemented, the `Provides:` header and the
update-alternatives logic must be removed.

-Ben
