Package: reform-tools Version: 1.81-2 X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected] Control: affects -1 xdg-terminal-exec sway
I am surprised to see that reform-tools now installs this file: /usr/share/xdg-terminal-exec/sway-xdg-terminals.list reform-tools isn't Sway. I'm worried about a possible future filename conflict if some other package provides that file. I am the maintainer of the xdg-terminal-exec package in Debian. I am willing to have the xdg-terminal-exec package install that file (like already happens for GNOME and Ubuntu) but we should probably get approval from the sway package maintainer for its contents. (Or sway could ship its own file.) Another alternative is for the Reform desktop to set a custom XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP. For instance, Ubuntu has an Ubuntu session (with /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/ubuntu.session and /usr/share/wayland-sessions/ubuntu.desktop) that makes use of a GNOME Shell feature (GNOME Shell session mode) to set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to ubuntu:GNOME. Then things like xdg-terminal-exec and gsettings overrides can be set for Ubuntu without touching GNOME. It also inherits GNOME settings (unless overriden by Ubuntu settings). This might be complex to set up but there are some advantages if it can be made to work. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
