Yeah, ok, I've read the complete bug report this time. But you're still writing weird things from my point of view. ;) Sh isn't a file/mimetype, so I don't understand why there is a need for a default handler. Also, the command is starting sh, so why would someone want to start a terminal-emulator instead? Moreover, I just tried on Xfce and GNOME to run (alt+f2) "sh -c 'echo foo'", and it doesn't start a sh handler, even on GNOME, so I'm even more confused.
A more correct way might be to do something like: x-terminal-emulator -e sh -i -c 'ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase $HOME/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase 2>/dev/null && echo [Enter] && head -n1 && touch $HOME/.ecryptfs/.wrapped-passphrase.recorded ' This would start a terminal emulator, as expected... -- Prompt to record encryption passphrase produces no response in Xubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365796 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in eCryptfs - Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem: Incomplete Status in “ecryptfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This bug report is similar to LP bug #359997, but I don't believe it to be duplicate. I performed a clean installation of Xubuntu 9.04 alternate, and chose to encrypt my home directory. Upon completing the installation, I was presented with the lightbulb icon in my panel, indicating that information was available. I clicked the icon, read the instructions, and then selected, "Run this action now." However, nothing happened after clicking on the button. A terminal window did not open, and I was not presented with an error. Perhaps the "run this action now" button is calling gnome-terminal or something that is not installed on Xubuntu, but this should examined. Fortunately, I was able to research the issue, and I found the aforementioned bug report. Entering, "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase" gave me the necessary prompt, and I was able to get my autogenerated strong passphrase. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
