Subject: labplot: need not to be run in a terminal
Package: labplot
Version: 1.6.0.1-6
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Labplot needs not to be run in a terminal (under KDE).

I think that the actual behavior (which opens an unneeded terminal and
runs labplot in
it when you click in the Labplot icon could be annoying to users.

To fix this, simply change

Terminal=yes

to

Terminal=no

in /src/LabPlot.desktop

I'm submitting a patch for this. Simply put in the debian/patches
directory (and add it to the "series" file for quilt)
