Package: w3m
Version: 0.5.2-2.1
Severity: normal
Setting BROWSER=w3m is sadly asking for trouble. When some X program
(such as xfce4-terminal) tries to use sensible-browser, it will run w3m,
and despite w3m having no terminal, w3m will exit nonzero, and so
sensible-browser assumes it succeeded, and does not go on to run
x-www-browser instead.
What does w3m really do when run like this?
Well, one possibility is that since TERM is not set, it fails. Except,
oops -- w3m prints an error and then exits successfully in this kind of
case:
joey@gnu:~>TERM= w3m; echo $?
Can't find termcap entry
0
joey@gnu:~>unset TERM
joey@gnu:~>w3m http://kite/; echo $?
TERM is not set
0
It should exit nonzero in both the cases above.
However, strace shows that when run by xfce4-terminal, w3m actually
dumps the page to stdout and exits, same as if it were run in a pipe.
