Title:
Nautilus gives no error message if an application fails to start
Status in Nautilus:
Expired
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
If I try to run an application by double clicking it in Nautilus and
the application for some reason fails to start I get no error message.
If I try to run the same application in the Terminal, I always get an
error message such as "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", "error while
loading shared libraries: xxxxxx.so.0: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory" or "./a.out: Permission denied". Without
an error message it is impossible to tell what went wrong and if the
application did something or not. Nautilus should show the error
messages too. Even better it should give a solution to the problem
such as offering to install a missing package or asking if the user
want's to give the file execute permission.
