Public bug reported: Binary package hint: emacs22
The binary package emacs22-bin-common 22.2-0ubuntu8 comes with the desktop file /usr/share/applications/emacsclient-emacs22.desktop The file specifies the Exec key with the command: /usr/bin/emacsclient.emacs22 -a emacs22 Running the command yields the error: /usr/bin/emacsclient.emacs22: file name or argument required Try `/usr/bin/emacsclient.emacs22 --help' for more information The desktop file itself is also confusing because the emacs22 binary package already comes with the emacs22.desktop file which executes the command "/usr/bin/emacs22-x" Also, from the two files' descriptions, which are "Emacs 22 (X11)" and "Emacs 22 (client)" it's hard to understand the difference between them. ** Affects: emacs22 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- package has .desktop file that errors and does nothing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/543799 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
