Bug#165063: debian-policy: Section `12.8.3 Packages providing a terminal emulator' fails to sufficently document the -e option
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.5.6.1
Severity: minor
The current:
* Support the command-line option -e command, which creates a new terminal
window[53] and runs the specified command.
doesn't distinguish between gnome-terminal's -e option and xterm's -e
option, which are incompatible. (gnome-terminal provides a wrapper to
fix this problem).
