Package: mate-session-manager Version: 1.18.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The mate-wm script try to get the name of the window manager using "gsettings get". "gsettings get" give the value between quotes, and the mate-wm script does not remove them before executing it : the command cannot be found. If you want to reproduce the bug, run "unset WINDOW_MANAGER && mate-wm" : **************** denis@kamoulux:~$ unset WINDOW_MANAGER denis@kamoulux:~$ gsettings get org.mate.session.required-components windowmanager 'marco' denis@kamoulux:~$ bash -x /usr/bin/mate-wm + SMID= + DEFWM= + GET= + '[' -z '' ']' ++ gsettings get org.mate.session.required-components windowmanager + WINDOW_MANAGER=''\''marco'\''' + '[' 'x'\''marco'\''' = xcompiz -o x = xcompiz ']' + '[' 'x'\''marco'\''' = xmate-wm ']' + '[' -z ''\''marco'\''' ']' + '[' -z ''\''marco'\''' ']' + OPT1= + OPT2= + OPT3= + OPT4= + '[' '!' -z '' ']' + case `basename $WINDOW_MANAGER` in ++ basename ''\''marco'\''' + exec ''\''marco'\''' /usr/bin/mate-wm: line 159: exec: 'marco': not found *************** -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages mate-session-manager depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.12.2-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.26.1-3 ii debian-mate-default-settings 1.18.2-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.26.1-3 ii libc6 2.26-6 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.15.10-1 ii libcairo2 1.15.10-1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.12.2-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.110-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.36.11-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.54.3-2 ii libgtk-3-0 3.22.26-2 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.14-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.40.14-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b3 ii libsystemd0 237-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.4-3 ii libxau6 1:1.0.8-1+b2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 ii libxtst6 2:1.2.3-1 ii mate-desktop-common 1.18.0-2 Versions of packages mate-session-manager recommends: ii caja 1.18.5-2 ii marco 1.18.2-1 ii mate-panel 1.18.7-4 ii mate-polkit 1.18.2-2 ii mate-settings-daemon 1.18.2-1 mate-session-manager suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
