Package: xdg-utils Version: 1.1.1-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch File: /usr/bin/xdg-email Control: affects 855334 xdg-utils Control: block -1 by 855334
Dear Maintainer, the new thunderbird package in Debian introduced a wrapper script, which breaks xdg-email. See jirka@debian:/mnt/v$ xdg-email mailto:1...@xxx.xxx Illegal option -c Usage: thunderbird [-h|-vg|-- @args] This is because teh wrapper script expects real thunderbird options to come after a --. Ie. "thunderbird -- -compose" works, "thunderbird -compose" doesn't. For a fix, you can just add -- to the command line when launching. Luckily enough, this doesn't break even when thunderbird is the vanilla executable. The attached patch should do the trick. For a reference, see bugs #855406 and #855334.
