Public bug reported:

This problem results when I try to run a simple bash script by clicking on an 
application link to it in Feisty.
For example: I have a simple backup script stored on an external harddrive with 
an application link in the root of the file system on the removable drive. Both 
the script and the link are stored on the removable drive. The script can be 
run manually by "cd-ing" to the removable drive and running sh plus the script 
name. I can not however run it by prepending ./

Here is the error I get when trying to run it from the application link:
Konsole is unable to open a PTY (pseudo teletype). It is likely that this is 
due to an incorrect configuration of the PTY devices. Konsole needs to have 
read/write access to the PTY devices.

This is an old setup and it worked great in edgy.
Thanks
