Public bug reported: After upgrading to the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS beta (gucharmap version 1:13.0.1-1), I found that the charmap command was missing. After some searching I discovered it still exists with the name gucharmap. Maybe it was always called gucharmap and there used to be a symlink from charmap which the upgrade removed?
The charmap(1) manpage still exists, as a symlink to gucharmap. It's weird having a manpage for a command that doesn't exist. Please could we have a charmap symlink (back)? At least some users are used to using that name. The changelog mentions previously fixing the charmap symlink in version 0.6.0-1: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=187522 and installing the charmap.1 link in version 1:2.24.2-1. I couldn't see anything in there suggesting that the removal of the charmap symlink was intentional. Thanks. ** Affects: gucharmap (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gucharmap in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1873301 Title: charmap command missing after upgrade to 20.04 (Focal Fossa) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gucharmap/+bug/1873301/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
