Public bug reported: Binary package hint: deskbar-applet
I have installed a third party applicationwhich had the good idea to name their binary with a space in it. When I try to launch it via the deskbar Applet, it finds it corectly (and displays the space), but it is unable to execute it. I get something like (I have it in french actually) : "Unable to execute the program : 'foo bar' " How to reproduce ============== 1) Create a dummy "foo bar" program > cd /usr/bin > sudo echo "echo hello" > "foo bar" > sudo chmod +x "foo bar" 2) Try to launch it via the deskbar applet. ** Affects: deskbar-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Unable to launch commands with white space in it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478412 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
