Package: ebook-speaker
Version: 2.0-3
I selected ebook-reader for install, found a menu entry in Sound &
Video, selected that menu entry and got a dialog
(-) Could not launch 'eBook speaker'
Failed to excute child process "xterm" (no such file or directory)
my simplest suggestion to resolving this problem would be to remove
the menu entry from the package as the package seems to have
absolutely no GUI components and the menu entry even after xterm is
installed manually simply plays a sound file and exits, because it
expects to be given a filename of an ebook on the command line.
Alternatively a minimal UI perhaps with gdialog, zenity or the like
would need to be added to specify a file, and it'd need to either
properly use alternatives to use whatever x-terminal-emulator is
available or would need to depend upon the xterm package to ensure its
installed.
I'm using Wheezy, kernel 3.2.0-4-686-pae, package repository:
deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free
Should be an easily observable and reproducible issue, and isn't of
grave severity, just a bit misleading is all.. I expected it to be a
graphical app when I seen the icon in my menu and as it turns out
there is no way to use it from that menu entry, so it probably
shouldn't be there.
