This is a bug in fish 1.21.4, fish thinks the htmlview command is avaialble even though it isn't. htmlview is a browser wrapper that automatically starts your preferred browser. When unavalibale fish should instead try e.g. x-www-browser (which is another browser wrapper just like htmlview, and one I think is more commnly supported on Debian), firefox, mozilla, etc.. This is fixed in fish 1.21.5, unfortunatly that version has a new, silly bug, so I don't know if the Debian maintainer (James Vega) will release that one or wait for 1.21.6, which will be released today or tomorrow. A quick fix is to replace /usr/share/fish/functions/type.fish with this file: http://roo.no-ip.org/fish/darcs/_darcs/current/share/functions/type.fish > > Perhaps a note on the fish home page might help. > > Debian need all the dependent packages for apt-get to be useful > Thanks > Richard > > -- Axel ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
