Hi all, after upgrading to Squeeze it took me quite some tome to find this one:
I was using the "Send to Email" sendwithicedove.desktop file from http://blog.derjohn.de/comments/start/2010-01-02/1 in /usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/ on my Lenny laptop but it didn't work on my Squeeze desktop machine. In the end it turned out that dash as the default shell in Squeeze does not execute the subshell funtions in this *.desktop script. Changing the /bin/sh symbolic link so that it points to bash instead of dash solved the issue. Is such a reduction in functionality necessary for the sake of some other benefit? Will the Exec funtion in *.desktop files have to be written without subshells in the future? Or will it have to point to bash scripts then? Curiously, Andreas v.
