Package: lintian Version: 2.18.0 Severity: wishlist The Lintian reports for gnome-documents and gnome-sound-recorder say that #!/usr/bin/gjs-console is an unusual interpreter.
Before I researched this, I had assumed that gjs preloaded GTK or some other X11-related library and gjs-console didn't, but actually they are equivalent: gjs-console is the original name for /usr/bin/gjs, which is just a symlink. I don't think there is any particular reason to prefer one over the other: the symlink was added in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=584560 to make it slightly easier for developers to start an interactive REPL for gjs. I believe the attached patch is correct. smcv
