Dear Maintainer, Sage fails to start from the graphical menu with "Failed to execute default Terminal Emulator" "Input/output error". The problem is confined to the menu launcher: sage starts without problem from the command line (e.g. typing "sage -n" from the terminal emulator). ----------------- The problem appears specific to sage, not to my configuration. This is the information that leads me to believe this: *** I have verified that all other applicatons that launch with "Terminal=true" work as intended. In particular all applications listed here, except for sage, open from their respective menu items /usr/share/applications$ grep "Terminal=true" * emacs-term.desktop:Terminal=true jupyter-notebook.desktop:Terminal=true mc.desktop:Terminal=true mcedit.desktop:Terminal=true python3.11.desktop:Terminal=true R.desktop:Terminal=true sagemath.desktop:Terminal=true vim.desktop:Terminal=true *** I use "terminator" as my default terminal emulator. # update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator There are 5 choices for the alternative x-terminal-emulator (providing /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator). Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ * 0 /usr/bin/terminator 50 auto mode 1 /usr/bin/koi8rxterm 20 manual mode 2 /usr/bin/lxterm 30 manual mode 3 /usr/bin/terminator 50 manual mode 4 /usr/bin/uxterm 20 manual mode 5 /usr/bin/xterm 20 manual mode $ x-terminal-emulator works as intended (opens a new window running terminator) *** I run xfce-4 as my window manager. My xfce4 configuration (Menu Applications -> Settings -> Default Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal Emulator) is set to "Debian X Terminal Emulator" This works as intended: $ exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator works as intended (opens a new window running terminator) -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (50, 'experimental'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages sagemath depends on: ii python3 3.11.1-3 ii python3-sage 9.5-6 Versions of packages sagemath recommends: ii sagemath-doc 9.5-6 ii sagemath-jupyter 9.5-6 ii sagetex 3.6.1+ds-1 ii texlive-latex-base 2022.20230122-1 Versions of packages sagemath suggests: pn dot2tex <none> pn gap-design <none> ii gap-factint 1.6.3+ds-2 pn gap-grape <none> pn gap-guava <none> ii gap-laguna 3.9.5+ds-2 pn gap-sonata <none> pn gap-toric <none> -- no debconf information
