It is a new problem with it. According to xterm man page, xterm -e [command]
[command options] sould works.
In practice, it work only with gnome-terminal:
gnome-terminal -e mc /home/dom
With
terminator -e mc /home/dom
it fail. I must use quoting:

the issue with x-terminal-emulator is because it is set to terminator.

My patch fixed terminator when it is symlinked and run as x-terminal-
emulator. It doesn't change any behavior if you continue to run it as
terminator.

Sorry for the noise, maybe it is specific to Debian. I get the same
error on Debian with x-terminal-emulator as when calling terminator
directly. I will report it to Debian.

Ok. Andrea, I think you are right.
Also, I just try

and terminator -e man bash
and they are working fine again. (terminator 0.96 on gentoo

Last, I think the gnome-terminal.wrapper script must be debian specific,

We could do the following: if terminator is invoked as x-terminal-
emulator, then it follows the policy. Else it behaves like gnome-
terminal.

Andrea, that's a good idea. Another possibility would be a preference
setting. Both solutions are not exclusive.
If no pref is defined then follow the policy, or not, depending on how it is
launched.
If the pref is defined, use the prefered policy in both cases.
If only one of those solutions
I proposed that behavior for two reasons:
1. if one invokes x-terminal-emulator, he expects that it behaves like any
x-terminal-emulator; and
2. this is a common behavior. Examples include: adduser (which can be invoked
as addgroup), bash (which can be invoked as sh) and zsh (which can be

You never noticed that gnome-terminal has a wrapper in debian that
correctly handles the -e option (when used as x-terminal-emulator)? That
what other alternatives must do as well.

The policy would suggest that GNOME Terminal is not suitable either, since its

We follow GNOME Terminal behaviour in this regard, our -x is xterm's -e and we
